EDL 8201 Designing and Interpreting Instruments for the Dissertation in Practice II
The dissertation in practice (DIP) demonstrates the candidate’s ability as a scholar-practitioner to identify and research a problem of practice, and then determine a possible resolution through measured intervention strategies that will be designed, implemented, and evaluated within the context of the candidate’s sphere of influence. This course is designed as a follow-up to EDL 8200, taking place after a series of inquiry/PDSA cycles have been completed as part of the planning work. Therefore, this course is constructed to extend and deepen the candidate’s understanding and interpretation of measurements and data analysis. In completing this course, the candidate will refine their understanding of design measurement(s) and data analysis for direct application to the dissertation in practice.
