While the tools for experimental research tend tobe external to the individual researcher, qualitative research depends on the researcher as analystto make decisions based on decades of reading and experience. I was unsure how to condenseseveral years of situated learning into a digestible nugget. This problem was compounded by mydiscomfort performing “sage on the stage” knowledge-transfer type teaching.I tried my best and ended up leading a seminar on paradigms, focusing on positivism, socialconstructivism, and critical theory [25].

As such, it is important tounderstand what drew people from these groups into the field. Research provides some sense ofhow to achieve this. For example, studies have shown that students who are women and/or fromunderrepresented ethnoracialized groups have positive experiences and increases in confidenceand interest in data-related fields and in research as a result of taking statistics courses that arebased on projects that

But it is in maintaining a balance between these forces (hard vs. soft, applied vs.theoretical, industrial influence, market demands, etc.), that make good EM programs. To fail toembrace the multidisciplinary nature of this field, we believe would be a mistake and ultimatelyrelegate the field to something it was never meant to be. References 1. Beruvides, M.G.
