I found this website via the Resources for Instructors section of the ICPSR website. It has many useful resources and features that a research instructor would find very practical in lesson planning! Some of the features include:
- Data In The News: useful for talking about ethical use of data, whether its represented correctly, etc.
- Charts & Tables: visual aids to enhance learning (e.g., use of census data).
- Lectures and Lessons: on a variety of topics.
- Activities & Assignments: for use in class or out of class.
- And lots more!
Even if you are not teaching a research methods course, this is a great way to integrate research into other class content, in order to help students better understand the link between research and practice.
