Zoom Limit 25
Reliable data informs our understanding of public opinion, trends, public welfare, and demographic characteristics in our community, the state, country and world. Without accurate data, misrepresentation can prevail. We will cover two topics in each class, first by presentation of the data, and then our discussion of its meaning for us personally, and for the larger community. We will use Pew Research Center and National Opinion Research Center (NORC) data, as well as government data when appropriate. Information will be provided to you ahead of time via email when appropriate. If you register for this course, feel free to recommend topics you would like covered before the class starts.
