Title: Failures in the Quantitative Methods course in social science : the student perspective
Author: Le Bourdais, Olivia; Cabot, Isabelle
Abstract: "The Quantitative Methods course is a pet peeve
of many Sciences Humaines (SH) [the French language equivalent of Social Science, Ed.] students.
It’s "the math class even in the non-math profile," as
many describe it! Not surprisingly, it’s a challenging course (Monatesse, 2011; Dussault, 2015), that
is failed by more than 20% of those enrolled. In the
context of the implementation of the new SH program in the Fall 2023 session, it is a favourable time
to discuss the reasons for such a high number of failures in this course, in order to seize the opportunity
to try to improve its success rate." -- AQPC
