Description:
Students participating in this project will learn qualitative and quantitative research skills. The research team will be working with data collected through surveys from current and past students in the educator preparation program at Texas A&M. Graduate students and a faculty member in the Department of Teaching, Learning and Culture will guide and direct this project. Student researchers will code data from the survey responses. Students will use Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets and word processing applications. Other graphic programs, like LucidCharts, may also be used. Students may also be asked to obtain scholarly articles pertinent to the data. Student researchers will have the opportunity to write up the findings from the data, participate in local and state conferences, and potentially write for publication. The option for earning 1 hour of undergraduate research credit is available (291 or 491).
