ADED 565

Learners will engage with academic research through a guided, purposeful approach so as to enhance both learner confidence and ability to understand peer-reviewed scholarship in the field of adult education. Learners will develop techniques to analyze and critique published research that applies directly to learners’ professional life. The course will guide the learner through the process of research with a “consumer’s” focus, preparing the learner to discern and utilize research in their own practice. The completion of a critical analysis of research studies is a requirement of this course. Credit will be granted for only one of ADED 565 or ADED 520. Three credits.
