ED 801 Doctoral Seminar

The purpose of this doctoral seminar is to coach and support doctoral students as they conduct a feasible, ethical, and valid research project. Students will meet regularly and work with a faculty adviser through the online platform to develop their Dissertation in Practice manuscript chapters. In this portion of the Dissertation in Practice, students will share their identified problem of practice, challenge, or complex phenomenon in their area of interest. Drawing upon program coursework and their independent research, students will write and present this first portion of their Dissertation in Practice and receive feedback. In addition, students will begin or continue to conduct their research based on their IRB. Prerequisites: permission of the program director. (3)
