Description:

This module aims to engage students in critical exploration of a research question. Through this they will develop skills in planning, making recommendations for applying their findings and future research. It distinguishes the range of research from reflective practice, and action research from quality improvement, program evaluation, the scholarship of teaching and learning, and other types of research. We’ll start with exploring ontology and epistemology which is foundational basis of research. What counts as knowledge? What is your notion of reality and how is this determined?
