Using a coding frame based on traditional gender-role stereotypes, I assign students to small groups who then undertake a close analysis of selected children's books to see whether traditional gender-role stereotypes are apparent. Students examine the text, symbols, characters, use of color, & major themes in each book. In this article, I briefly review the theoretical underpinnings of the exercise, offer a brief summary of content analysis, & outline the delivery of the exercise, its learning goals, & major discussion points. Through a take-home assignment, students are asked to articulate the manner in which gender stereotypes may be perpetuated by the media. Additionally, students are encouraged to think about the ways in which their own gender identities have been shaped by the media. Actual student comments are used throughout to highlight the major discussion points. 1 Figure, 1 Appendix, 42 References.

This project was designed following an examination of the curricula of 13 disciplines that revealed that sociology failed to integrate empirical, quantitative literacy components throughout the undergraduate curriculum. Thus, efforts to introduce students to data analysis early and often were established as a best practice in the discipline. Results revealed that the students found the modules helped them understand the empirical nature of sociology. The students expressed an interest in participating in future research projects in sociology and/or other disciplines. They were not overly anxious about the quantitative literacy components of the course. Including on-line data analysis strategies using publicly available data and complimentary software represent cost and time-effective methods of introducing quantitative literacy into the social science classroom. Many social and behavioral sciences other than sociology have also discovered that their students lack a clear understanding of the relationship between empirical research and substantive topics within the discipline. Consequently, the lessons learned from the efforts of the ASA could be applied across many disciplines to form a more cohesive curriculum for many disciplines.", "publicationTitle": "Innovative Higher Education", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "2006", "volume": "31", "issue": "1", "section": "", "partNumber": "", "partTitle": "", "pages": "27-42", "series": "", "seriesTitle": "", "seriesText": "", "journalAbbreviation": "", "DOI": "", "citationKey": "", "url": "http://search.proquest.com/eric/docview/62109526/13C5386076A2BFBBB3/10?accountid=14437", "accessDate": "2013-02-18T16:01:51Z", "PMID": "", "PMCID": "", "ISSN": "0742-5627", "archive": "", "archiveLocation": "", "shortTitle": "The Effect of Data Analysis Modules in the Introductory Sociology Course", "language": "English", "libraryCatalog": "ProQuest", "callNumber": "", "rights": "", "extra": "", "tags": [ { "tag": "Data literacy" }, { "tag": "higher education", "type": 1 } ], "collections": [ "6FDD7J9M" ], "relations": {}, "dateAdded": "2014-11-17T15:57:02Z", "dateModified": "2014-11-17T15:57:02Z" } }, { "key": "D7GX7E6V", "version": 16, "library": { "type": "group", "id": 276056, "name": "ACRL ANSS Recommended Reads", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/acrl_anss_recommended_reads", "type": "text/html" } } }, "links": { "self": { "href": "https://api.zotero.org/groups/276056/items/D7GX7E6V", "type": "application/json" }, "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/groups/acrl_anss_recommended_reads/items/D7GX7E6V", "type": "text/html" } }, "meta": { "createdByUser": { "id": 88413, "username": "abeaucha", "name": "Adam Beauchamp", "links": { "alternate": { "href": "https://www.zotero.org/abeaucha", "type": "text/html" } } }, "creatorSummary": "Burdette and McLoughlin", "parsedDate": "2010", "numChildren": 0 }, "data": { "key": "D7GX7E6V", "version": 16, "itemType": "journalArticle", "title": "Using Census Data in the Classroom to Increase Quantitative Literacy and Promote Critical Sociological Thinking", "creators": [ { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Amy M.", "lastName": "Burdette" }, { "creatorType": "author", "firstName": "Kerry", "lastName": "McLoughlin" } ], "abstractNote": "One useful, but underutilized, strategy to increase quantitative literacy and promote critical sociological thinking is to have students investigate demographic trends in their local community.

Design/methodology/approach -- The course was co-taught twice by a librarian and a data archivist using a syllabus and assignments that reflect sociological research problems and tools and information literacy competencies in the social sciences. Findings -- The need for information and data skills in sociology is well-established, and their integration into a sociology course (rather than in a stand-alone information literacy course) would produce more opportunities for students to apply what they learn and for the instructors to assess learning in the context of doing sociology coursework. Research limitations/implications -- The class sizes were too small for full-scale assessment and pre-tests/post-tests were not given. Assessment of student learning was based on work produced in and outside class and on course evaluations. Practical implications -- It is suggested that librarians and data archivists work with faculty to innovate curricular approaches based on recommendations and outcomes in key documents on learning sociology from professional library and sociology organizations. Attaching the lab to an existing course and promoting the data literacy modules for faculty to adopt in other courses are also suggested. Originality/value -- This paper invites social science librarians to examine the value to students and faculty of collaboration with professional data services staff to teach and merge information and data literacy within the social sciences curricula.", "publicationTitle": "Reference Services Review", "publisher": "", "place": "", "date": "November 2007", "volume": "35", "issue": "4", "section":
