Dr. Rhys Jones has worked with many researchers. In doing so, he found that researchers, whether doing qualitative or quantitative research, lack basic math skills needed to make design decisions or to evaluate existing research. He created a hands-on workbook to help those of us who need a refresher for the math we’ve forgotten, or who need to develop new skills: Essential Math Skills for Exploring Social Data. In this video interview Dr. Jones shows practical examples and offers suggestions that are relevant whether you are a methods professor, new researcher, or a student.
