15.075 Applied Statistics (MIT) 15.075 Applied Statistics (MIT)

Description

This course is an introduction to applied statistics and data analysis. Topics include collecting and exploring data, basic inference, simple and multiple linear regression, analysis of variance, nonparametric methods, and statistical computing. It is not a course in mathematical statistics, but provides a balance between statistical theory and application. Prerequisites are calculus, probability, and linear algebra. We would like to acknowledge the contributions that Prof. Roy Welsch (MIT), Prof. Gordon Kaufman (MIT), Prof. Jacqueline Telford (Johns Hopkins University), and Prof. Ramón León (University of Tennessee) have made to the course material.

11.328J Urban Design Skills: Observing, Interpreting, and Representing the City (MIT) 11.328J Urban Design Skills: Observing, Interpreting, and Representing the City (MIT)

Description

This is an introduction course to the methods of recording, evaluating, and communicating about the urban environment. The course will build skills fundamental to undertaking a wide variety of urban design efforts, including for example: design of streets and public places, shaping neighborhood form and function, and incorporating natural systems into the urban fabric.Through visual observation, field analysis, measurements, interviews, and other means, students will learn to draw on their senses and develop their ability to deduce, question, and test conclusions about how the environment is used and valued. Through the use of representation tools such as: drawing, photographing, computer modeling and desktop publishing, students will communicate what is observed as well as their impressio This is an introduction course to the methods of recording, evaluating, and communicating about the urban environment.

11.233 Research Design for Policy Analysis and Planning (MIT) 11.233 Research Design for Policy Analysis and Planning (MIT)

Description

This course develops skills in research design for policy analysis and planning. The emphasis is on the logic of the research process and its constituent elements. The course relies on a seminar format so students are expected to read all of the assigned materials and come to class prepared to discuss key themes, ideas, and controversies. Since the materials draw broadly on the social sciences, and since students have diverse interests and methodological preferences, ongoing themes in our discussions will be linking concepts to planning scholarship in general and considering how different epistemological orientations and methodological techniques map on to planning specializations.

t vote this time”: How to improve electoral surveys t vote this time”: How to improve electoral surveys

Description

How can we improve the quality of post-election survey data on electoral turnout? That is the core question of our recent paper. We present a novel way to question citizens about their voting behaviour that increases the truthfulness of responses. Our research finds that the inclusion of “face-saving” response items can drastically improve the accuracy of reported turnout. Usually, the turnout reported in post-election surveys is much higher than in reality, and this is partly due to actual abstainers pretending that they have voted. Why do they lie? In many countries, voting is a social norm widely shared by the ... How can we improve the quality of post-election survey data on electoral turnout? That is the core question of our recent paper.

Research methods: Designing surveys presentation

Description

This presentation is part of "Research methods" module. This module is designed primarily for students taking sport-related courses, but knowledge and use of research methods is widely shared across a range of social science disciplines, so students from any other such discipline should find this useful too. It is important to focus on methods, almost to the exclusion of any actual content, at least until you find your bearings. Thus although there are important differences between them students of Outdoor Adventure should find something of interest in material devoted to discussing Leisure, Sport Development, Sport Management and others. By the end of the presentation, a student should be able to understand the basic principles of sampling, apply methods to design samples, assess the qu

It is important to focus on methods, almost to the exclusion of any actual content, at least until you find your bearings. Thus although there are important differences between them students of Outdoor Adventure should find something of interest in material devoted to discussing Leisure, Sport Development, Sport Management and others.
