Expérimental political science

Methods of Teaching:

Interactive Lectures:

The course will employ interactive lectures to introduce key concepts, theories, and methodological approaches. Engaging discussions and real-world examples will enhance students' grasp of theoretical concepts.

Case Studies:

Real-world case studies of successful political science experiments will be analyzed to provide practical insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with different experimental designs.

Hands-On Exercises:

Students will engage in an hands-on exercise to apply theoretical knowledge, designing experiments, analyzing data, and addressing ethical considerations. These exercises will bridge the gap between theory and practical application.

Student Presentations:

The final modules will feature student presentations of survey experiment proposals, fostering a collaborative and participatory learning environment. Peer review and constructive feedback will enhance the quality of students' research proposals.

Through these teaching methods, the course aims to create an immersive and dynamic learning experience, enabling students to emerge with a solid foundation in experimental political science and the confidence to apply their knowledge in future research endeavors.
