EDL 7011 - Theoretical Frameworks for Social Inquiry & Practice I (3)


When Offered: On Demand
A multi-disciplinary seminar in which students engage with questions that are central to understanding the connections and interplay between epistemology, research paradigms, and methodology in educational research. The course examines a contemporary topic in the field through an investigation of a number of research paradigms. The course focuses on the aspects of epistemology and theoretical perspectives as connected to methodology and methods to guide students in their future research. The aim of the course is not to advance a particular methodological or theoretical approach, but rather to cultivate a critical awareness of many positions that inform inquiry.
