SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Exhibition:True to Life: Film Director Nancy Savoca’s Quest for Authenticity
DESCRIPTION:Filmmaker Nancy Savoca aims to be as authentic as possible. Her films are brilliant\, intimate portraits that explore the weight of social institutions and social injustice placed upon the shoulders of her characters. Her lead characters\, typically women\, must balance their needs with those of others in order to find their true voice. This U-M student-curated exhibit is the result of a semester-long course devoted to her films and career.\n\nSavoca contributed her papers — spanning her career as a director\, producer\, and screenwriter — to the Screens Arts Mavericks & Makers collection at the U-M Library. Her archive represents nearly three decades of indie filmmaking\, and includes notes\, notebooks\, photos\, and script drafts.\n\nSee the symposium schedule for Character Driven: Exploring the Career and Archives of Nancy Savoca: https://www.lib.umich.edu/announcements/symposium-celebrates-filmmaker-nancy-savoca

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Introduction to the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Health and Retirement Study (hrsonline.isr.umich.edu) Summer Workshop is intended to give participants an introduction to the study that will enable them to use the data for research. HRS is a large-scale longitudinal study with more than 20 years of data on the labor force participation and health transitions that individuals undergo toward the end of their work lives and in the years that follow. The HRS Summer Workshop features morning lectures on basic survey content\, sample design\, weighting\, and restricted data files. Hands-on data workshops are held every afternoon in which participants learn to work with the data (including the user-friendly RAND version of the HRS data) under the guidance of HRS staff. Staff of the Gateway to Global Aging project (G2Aging.org)\, which harmonizes data across HRS international sister studies\, conduct an afternoon training. At the end of the week\, students have the opportunity to present their research ideas to the class and HRS research faculty and obtain feedback. Topics include (but are not limited to) in depth information on HRS data about health insurance and medical care\; biomarkers\, physical measures\, and genetic data\; cognition\; health and physical functioning\; linkage to Medicare\; employment\, retirement\, and pensions and linkage toe Social Security records\; psychosocial and well-being\; family data\; and international comparison data. The data training portion assumes some familiarity with SAS or STATA.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Deutschtisch
DESCRIPTION:The Deutschtisch for Spring 2019 is associated with German 100. All are welcome! The group will meet MW 12:00-12:45. You can find the group with your ears (i.e. listen for a group of people speaking German). Look for the group:\nMost days: At Maizie's Kitchen in the Michigan League.\nOccasionally in good weather: in the \"Courtyard Garden\" of the League\, across from UHS (one way to get to it would be to go directly through the League from the front doors (facing the Bell Tower) to the back doors).\nTo be sure of the location\, come to the end of class at 11:50 in 2108 MLB to walk to lunch with the group\, or email the instructors to confirm the location: Vera Irwin in the first half of the semester\, Maria Measel in the second half of the semester.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Multi-Item Scale Development and Testing
DESCRIPTION:Standardized multi-item scales are more common in some disciplines than others. This 2-day course is designed to inspire participants from all disciplines that it is possible to develop your own high quality multi-item scales (or correctly adapt existing multi-item scales) and offers an introduction on how to do this. It covers the psychometric principles of question development while adding in principles of general questionnaire design. Focusing first on Classical Measurement Theory\, participants design their own multi-item scales. This is followed by a group discussion of existing multi-item scales. The course then introduces some basic statistical tools for assessing the reliability and dimensionality of multi-item scales and participants get to practice evaluating some existing scales in a computer lab session. The course finishes with an introduction to Item Response Theory.\n\nPrerequisite: There is no prerequisite\, but a little knowledge about questionnaire design\, multi-item scales and SPSS would be of value.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Data Collection Methods
DESCRIPTION:This course reviews a range of survey data collection methods that are both interview-based (face-to-face and telephone) and self-administered (questionnaires that are mailed and online\, i.e.\, web surveys). Mixed mode designs are also covered as well as several hybrid modes for collecting sensitive information e.g.\, self-administering the sensitive questions in what is otherwise a face-to-face interview. The course also covers newer methods such as mobile web and SMS (text message) interviews\, and examines alternative data sources such as social media. It concentrates on the impact these techniques have on the quality of survey data\, including error from measurement\, nonresponse\, and coverage\, and assesses the tradeoffs between these error sources when researchers choose a mode or survey design. This is not a how-to-do-it course on survey data collection\, but rather focuses on the error properties of key aspects of the data collection process.\n\nStudents will view recorded lectures and complete reading assignments in preparation for class discussion sessions which will occur twice per week\, one hour per session.  Students are expected to attend all discussion sessions either in person or via BlueJeans.  Successful discussion sessions will occur through preparation and active participation by all participants enrolled in the course.  Students should have questions or discussion topics in mind for the class sessions.\n\nRemote participation option:  It is not necessary to be physically in Ann Arbor to take the course.  Students who cannot be in Ann Arbor can enroll and join discussion sessions via  BlueJeans (https://www.bluejeans.com/).\n\nOnce enrollment is confirmed via email\, indicate if course attendance will be in person\, in Ann Arbor or via BlueJeans.\n\nPrerequisite: An introductory course in survey research methods or equivalent experience.  If joining remotely\, participant must have computer\, camera and headset available to join the class via BlueJeans (https://www.bluejeans.com/)\nThis class meets June 3-July 24 on Monday and Wednesday from 3:00pm-4:00pm
