Giselle Bosse's course on "Survey research"UM best practice example
The course ‘Research Methods: Survey Research’ (BA European Studies), coordinated by Dr Bosse, has been selected by EDLAB as ‘Best Practice Example for the Use of Creative PBL’.
In this course, students carry out quantitative surveys for cultural and social organisations in Maastricht and the wider Meuse–Rhine Euroregion. Students also create interactive WordPress websites to present research results and policy recommendations to local clients.
Over the past ten years, students attending this course have carried out over 60 research projects for more than 30 local cultural and social organisations in Maastricht and the wider Meuse–Rhine Euroregion, including the Muziekgieterij, AINSI, Centre Céramique, Stichting SoAP, Filmtheater Lumiere, Opera Zuid, Marres, Maastricht University Green Office or the Holland Expat Center South. Special thanks to Pieternel Fleskens, who has helped establishing contacts with local clients since 2008/2009, and of course to all colleagues who have been teaching on the course since then.
