Abstract
This paper presents a model for teaching a research methods course by engaging students in institutional research. This highly effective teaching strategy combines collaborative learning with pragmatic experience through a series of didactic assignments focused on institutional research. Students in the research methods class described in this paper analyzed data gathered through an alumni survey and presented their findings to several university offices. In this paper, we outline the structure of the course, describe the assignments used to guide the students through the semester, and conclude with a discussion of the effectiveness of this model, particularly as it addresses recommendations for study in depth in undergraduate sociology
