SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Going Deeper into Questionnaire Design with Alternative Methods and Tools
DESCRIPTION:Founded in 1948\, the Summer Institute in Survey Research Techniques is designed specifically to meet the needs of professionals and graduate students seeking to deepen their expertise in survey methodology and data collection. Offered through the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science within the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan\, the program provides a rigorous and flexible curriculum that blends theoretical foundations with practical application — entirely online. \n\nClasses are open for registration.\nYou do not have to be affiliated with the University to attend. \nRegistration and payment are required a minimum of two weeks prior to the start of the class. \n\nJuly 20-23\, 2026 (M-Th)\n12:00pm-4:00pm\nGoing Deeper into Questionnaire Design with Alternative Methods and Tools\nPresented by Pamela Campanelli\nCourse Fee: $1\,200\n\nThis course assumes you have some level of experience with questionnaire design. It goes beyond looking at question comprehension purely from a cognitive side. The linguistic side will be explored\, including the use of online tools. Factual questions will be revisited but with the goal of exploring different types of respondent memory problems. Solutions include basic aids to improve memory and alternative methods: decomposition\, calendars\, event history calendars\, internet enabled devices\, wearables\, apps and sensors\, and additional tasks on mobile phones. Also covered are the effects of telescoping and quasi-facts. Subjective questions will be revisited to understand attitude inconsistency and to cover the popular topic of satisfaction and other customer experience metrics. Alternatives methods to attitude measurement will also be examined: factorial surveys and multi-item scales. The course concludes with multi-cultural issues raised by Rincón and a mini appendix on ways to translate survey questions and evaluate the translation.\n\nThe course will be interactive with the goal of making it as close to in-person training as possible. There also will be workshops throughout. Dr. Campanelli is happy to chat with participants about their own questionnaires.\n\nWhy take this course?\n\nYou will get to learn about:\n\nThe deeper issues that affect factual and subjective questions.\nA broader set of resources available to solve these issues (including alternative methods and tools).\n* Please note that AI is not included in the alternative tools that will be explored in this course's curriculum.\n\nPrerequisite: An introductory course in questionnaire design or equivalent experience.\n\nPamela Campanelli is a survey methods specialist\, chartered statistician\, fellow of the academy of social sciences and an international trainer\, researcher and consultant who runs her own business (http://www.thesurveycoach.com/). Her background is in social statistics\, survey methodology\, and psychology with a special interest in the study of survey error and data quality focusing on questionnaire design\, question testing strategies\, interviewing techniques\, sampling and weighting\, survey analysis\, and mixed-mode designs. In addition to providing consultancy\, conducting research\, writing papers\, reviewing for journals\, advising committees\, Dr. Campanelli’s focuses on providing training courses. She is committed to high quality learning. She believes in delivering courses that are lively and engaging\, foster an informal and interactive atmosphere\, communicate concepts in a straightforward and accessible way\, illustrate the material through the use of ‘real life’ examples\, and provide workshops to put theory into practice.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marianetta Porter: Breath\, Fragment\, Return
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCurated by Juana Williams\, this exhibition examines how Marianetta Porter uses everyday objects\, fragments\, and embodied memory to make absence an active\, living presence while challenging linear histories. Rooted in African American experience\, her practice treats what is discarded\, overlooked\, or missing not as loss\, but as a source of meaning that continues to act on the present. Through her process and materials\, Porter reveals how memory is carried in the body and embedded in ordinary things. Her work also resists forward-moving notions of time\, instead presenting a diasporic temporality in which past\, present\, and lived experience circulate together through repetition\, touch\, and recall. In doing so\, Porter proposes a vision of history as unfinished\, memory as active\, and absence as a force that sustains connection and shapes the present. \n\nMarianetta Porter is a visual artist and product designer whose research and creative practice are grounded in the study of African American history\, culture\, and representation. Through the language of visual art\, she draws connections between historic memory and contemporary African American life\, giving voice to the history of the African diaspora while acknowledging its central influence on the birth and flourishing of American culture.\n\nHer work has been exhibited nationally at institutions such as the Indianapolis Museum of Art\, the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry\, the Spoleto Festival\, the Harriet Tubman Museum\, and the Hampton University Museum of Art.\n\nShe earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Hampton University and her Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. The recipient of numerous awards\, Porter is Professor Emeritus at the University of Michigan’s Stamps School of Art and Design.\n\nJuana Williams is a curator and writer whose work explores the intersections of cross-border intellectual history\, cultural memory\, and identity formation as expressed through modern and contemporary art from Africa and its diasporas.\n\nWilliams has held curatorial and academic appointments at organizations including the Detroit Institute of Arts\, Library Street Collective\, Wayne State University\, and the Urban Institute for Contemporary Art. Her curatorial projects have been presented at institutions across the United States and France\, including the Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Muskegon Museum of Art\, Palais de Tokyo (Paris)\, and the Westmoreland Museum of American Art. In addition\, she has presented lectures at various museums and universities and contributed to numerous exhibition catalogs. Her work has been written about in publications such as Artsy\, Beaux Arts Magazine\, Condé Nast Traveller\, Michigan Chronicle\, and Observer. Williams holds a BA in Fine Art and an MA in Art History from Wayne State University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Up\, Up\, And Away: A History of Ballooning in America
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit examines the history of balloon flight in the United States from Blanchard’s first ascension to the early twentieth century. In the age of bird’s-eye views\, which imagined a perspective on American cities and towns from high in the air\, balloonists were the only people who actually had the opportunity to see what the growing nation looked like from above. As the nineteenth century progressed\, ballooning became a lucrative (if dangerous) business\, as crowds gathered to watch balloons launch\, and to see aeronauts risk their lives high in the air. Over time\, the image of the hot air balloon proliferated in American print culture\, being used to sell goods ranging from thread to canned beef. We hope that this exhibit conveys some of the thrill that would have come from seeing people fly for the first time.\n\nOn view May 22-August 28\, weekdays from 12-4 pm.
