- Ted Welser (Sociology)background: Art and philosophy in undergrad; phd at University of Washington in Seattle; worked at Microsoft Research in the Community technology group (now defunct). I love to learn how things work; I am also very interested in how changes in technology and communication are changing how people interact, and driving different types of social change (change at many different scales of analysis).
- My professional/academic goals and background are described here: https://plus.google.com/118359416062708974494/about
- My learning objectives are to help you think about research, develop the capacity to understand a wide range of types of research, see how to evaluate research and develop awareness of how to make research projects better. I also want to help each of you think about how you could begin to investigate questions that interest you and to develop your capacity to clearly write about your research objectives. Finally, I want to encourage understanding of how science operates through an iterative social process of asking questions of the empirical world.
