CARMA Research Methods Faculty Network

We are pleased to announce the creation of our CARMA Research Methods Faculty Network as a new benefit available to our Institutional Members. This Network is established to support collaboration and sharing of instructional resources among those who teach doctoral-level research methods courses for management/business at our Institutional member schools. Special emphasis will be given to helping instructors of research methods courses learn how they can use CARMA programs and events that are freely available to all students (and faculty) at member schools as part of their course design and classroom experience.

These free resources for faculty teaching research methods courses include:

• Invitations to special events featuring members of the network.
• Invitations to meet the CARMA Team via live online sessions in the upcoming year.
• Access to faculty-only receptions after select events during the upcoming year.

These additional resources supplement the CARMA resources available to all faculty and students at member schools, including 250+ recordings from the CARMA Video Library and live CARMA Live On-Line Short Courses. More information on CARMA and our events/programs can be found on our website.

2023-2024 Research Methods Faculty Network Sessions:

What/How for Your Methods Course, September 8, 2023

Panelists:
Dr. Paul Bliese
Dr. Jeff Edwards
Dr. Larry Williams

This first panel session offered as part of CARMA’s Research Methods Faculty Network will feature the discussion of several topics. These include:

• Typical syllabus content of an introductory methods course and related resources
• Tips from experienced faculty on how they approach selected topics
• Guidance for students as they approach the daunting task of learning a broad set of methods and techniques
• How CARMA’s revised Research Methods Education Program (RMEP) can be used to support faculty and students as they take research methods courses.

Creating Data Sets for Instruction: Examples with ChatGPT, JASP, and Jamovi, December 1, 2023

Panelists:
Dr. Justine DeSimone
Dr. Matt Howard
Dr. Misty Sabol

Instructors of doctoral courses on research methods and quantitative analysis often need data examples. These can be used for explaining important research design, sampling, and statistical analysis concepts. However, it can often be difficult to find real data that meets the goals of the topic, especially when multiple data sets with different properties are needed. Examples of such topics include relations among variables (e.g., correlations/differences in means), sample size, effect sizes, and violation of assumptions. New software is making data generation for these purposes more manageable. This panel session will demonstrate three tools that can be useful in this context: ChatGPT, JASP, and Jamovi.

Basics of Research Methods Collection – Topics & Presenters

The Basics of Research Methods Collection recordings have been selected to cover the breadth of topics often covered in an introduction to research methods doctoral course. The topics are general in nature and the material is presented at a level appropriate for those without advanced statistical or research methods training. These recordings can be easily accessed by students at Institutional Member schools, and these students and instructors pay no additional fee for CARMA’s on-demand access.
