Replication Data for: Integrating research methods training into elective courses in an undergraduate curriculum

In this article, we discuss the integration of research methods training into a third-year elective undergraduate course. We suggest that the building blocks of research design can be embedded in courses without compromising their content. This could be done to introduce research methods to students who have no prior methods training or to give students with methods training more opportunities to engage in research design. We present evidence that this approach increased students' self-assessed knowledge of and confidence with research-related skills, especially among students without prior methods training. Additionally, the analysis of research proposals—the final assignment of the course—revealed that most students were able to apply core research design skills. These findings demonstrate that progress in research methods skills is possible across the curriculum.
