Description

This course is designed to enable students to become competent, sophisticated readers of the often complex and contested research literature in education by examining the conventions and assumptions within different research traditions and the conceptual frameworks utilised. The course provides students with the tools to engage in collaborative appraisals of research studies as well as to individually analyse and evaluate a study pertinent to their research. Additionally, through a more critical reading of research, ways of writing research will be examined and developed.
