Agenda Quantitative Literacy Teaching Resources Survey Documentation and Analysis (SDA) Discussion

Quantitative Literacy Rhonda Dugan Sociology CSU Bakersfield

What is Quantitative Literacy (QL)? Emergence in 1990s – General Education requirement QL is not a synonym for “statistics” National Council on Educational Statistics (NCES): “Knowledge & skills to perform quantitative tasks…such as balancing a checkbook [or] figuring out a tip…”

What does Quantitative Literacy (QL) Involve? Ability to perform algebraic/logical operations Develop problem solving skills Foster analytical skills to apply across disciplines

Dimensions of Quantitative Literacy (QL)? Five dimensions (Steen 1997): – Practical – Civic – Professional – Recreational – Cultural

QL in Sociology American Sociological Association (ASA): focus on “scientific literacy” of sociology majors Address the scientific reasoning gap Increase integration of data analysis, computer literacy in undergraduate sociology courses Key: early classroom exposure

Integrating Data Analysis Project (IDA), 2002 Collaborators: ASA, Social Science Data Analysis Network (SSDAN) at Univ. of Michigan Funded by National Science Foundation (NSF) Consortium of 12 sociology departments Incorporate use of data modules (U.S. Census, GSS)

Quantitative Literacy Focus: How sociology departments can incorporate QL in curricula – Provide students empirical experience – Active learning – Comprehension of social problems, community concerns Potential challenges – Availability of technology – Large enrollment-based courses – Time
