Abstract:

This paper provides a suggested teaching model enabling students to conduct extensive, hands-on survey research as the basis of part or all of a political science class. The model emphasizes active student learning and development of applied skills. The components of this model can be modified for utilization in a broad array of undergraduate political science courses, such as political science methods, campaigns and elections, public opinion, and public policy.
