INTRODUCTION TO DOCTORAL STUDIES.

Catalog description

This course provides an introduction to doctoral and PK-20 education studies. It also includes a discussion of the dissertation process and doctoral student journey and practices for successful doctoral study. Students will explore the purpose and function of scholarly writing, practice fundamental writing and editing skills, and utilize APA style requirements. It should be noted that discussion is a critical component of learning, so this pedagogic approach will be central to the course as well. Prerequisite: ELPS doctoral program admittance required.
