This course introduces candidates to major ideas and trends in educational action-based research, critically examining relevant paradigms and methods. With a conceptual understanding of research methodology, candidates will practice making judgments within paradigms of action-based educational research approaches. Candidates will conceptualize a research proposal to study their practice as educators, modeled in part on the Wisconsin Professional Development Plan (PDP) as outlined by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. Ethical obligations of doing research are emphasized. Throughout this course, candidates will be challenged to think about who they are as educators and individuals, needs and opportunities related to education, and how research can work toward building a just and compassionate world.
