EDFD 640 Educational Research
Students acquire research skills in natural settings by pursuing questions and issues within a typical classroom or school building or relative to matters of educational policy and practice. The student designs, employs and evaluates investigations using both qualitative and quantitative approaches. This course is especially appropriate for students who are contemplating additional graduate work beyond the master's degree, who will undertake a thesis or dissertation, and who wish a broad preparation in inquiry skills for these purposes.
