EDMA634 Action Research Project (3 cr.) Learners continue their work from EDMA630 Educational Research. Learners apply research skills by identifying strengths and limitations of published research and methodology. Learners evaluate the potential impact of the research on their educational practice. The action research project results in a written paper, which includes an introduction, a review of literature, research questions, a description of the methodology, and an evaluation of their research. Learners interpret the results and originate possible questions for further study.
Upon completion of this course, learners are expected to be able to do the following:
- Examine research by identifying its application to educational practice.
- Measure published educational research by identifying limitations, assumptions, and biases.
- Apply skills to implement a research plan.
- Use academic writing skills and APA style in the development of an action research paper.
- Demonstrate public speaking skills, including adapting one’s speaking style to the audience and using appropriate technology.
