Fisher-Giorlando, Marianne – Teaching Sociology, 1992
Describes a technique to make multistage cluster sampling easier for students to understand. Explains that students handle concrete objects that are analogous to the sampling units of a multistage cluster sampling procedure. Suggests that this method is inexpensive, easily organized, and stimulates the tactile senses in the learning process. (DK)
