Manuel González CanchéDr. Manuel S. González Canché is an Associate Professor in the Policy, Organization, Leadership, and Systems Division of the University of Pennsylvania, where he holds a tenured appointment. Dr. González Canché also serves as affiliated faculty with he Human Development and Quantitative Methods division and the International Educational Development Program. In addition, he is a senior scholar in the Alliance for Higher Education and Democracy. In his research, Dr. González Canché employs econometric, quasi-experimental, spatial statistics, and visualization methods for big and geocoded data, including geographical information systems, representation of real-world networks, and text-mining techniques. In related work, he aims to harness the mathematical power of network analysis to find structure in written content. He is developing an analytic method (Network Analysis of Qualitative Data) that blends quantitative, mathematical, and qualitative principles to analyze text data. Similarly, he is also developing the implementation of geographical network analyses that merge network principles and spatial econometrics to model spatial dependence of the outcome variables before making inferential claims. Dr. González Canché is currently teaching courses that rely heavily on computer programming code for PhD students. The no-code tools included in the proposed book have translated into grant funding and peer-reviewed publications in The Journal of Mixed Methods Research, The International Journal of Qualitative Methods, Expert Systems with Applications, and Methodological Innovations. Additionally, he has been offering professional development workshops for the American Educational Research Association. Dr. González Canché has a PhD in Higher Education Policy with cognates in Sociology, Economics, and Biostatistics from the University of Arizona. Read More Read Less
