DESCRIPTION:The Evidence for Equality National Survey (EVENS) provides un
 ique insights into the experiences of ethnic minorities in Great Britain
 . We have prepared a teaching dataset which will allow students to explo
 re these insights. The teaching dataset can be used in conjunction with 
 the free e-book\, allowing students to reproduce the analysis in the boo
 k or to carry out their own research. Please note that the weights that 
 are recommended for use with EVENS are not the ones used in the book. In
  reproducing analysis we would encourage replication but also updating u
 sing the new weights. For many of the results the differences are slight
  but for the racism analyses use of the revised weights gives higher lev
 els of experiences of racism.\n\nThe key topics covered in the teaching 
 dataset\, which will be released in 2024\, include:\n\n - Experiences of
  racism in different settings by ethnic and religious background.\n - Se
 nse of belonging and importance of ethnic and religious identity.\n - Ex
 periences of the Covid-19 pandemic relating to health\, employment and f
 inancial security.\n - Political attitudes and extent of support for Bla
 ck Lives Matter.\n\nThis free online workshop is designed to enable thos
 e teaching undergraduate students to use the dataset to explore substant
 ive questions related to their discipline. The aims of the workshop are 
 to enable participants to be able to:\n\n - Appreciate the design and im
 plementation of the EVENS survey.\n - Generate ideas for use of EVENS in
  teaching.\n - Develop appropriate exercises for students to engage in p
 ractical exploration\, analysis and reporting on substantive topics of i
 nterest.\n\nThe workshop will outline the new dataset and supporting inf
 ormation to inform attendees of the potential to use this innovative res
 ource in their teaching.
