Master’s Thesis II

Catalog description

This course is intended for Master\2019s level students to complete their Master\2019s Thesis project. In this spring session, students will revise their first draft to produce a defense draft, defend their thesis before their thesis committee, and make any required revisions before submitting their final draft. Students will work one-on-one with their thesis advisor and the thesis coordinator to identify times they will meet and create a communication plan throughout the completion of the Master\2019s Thesis. The Master\2019s Thesis is the culminating assessment in earning the Master of Arts in Global TESOL at Xavier University. As such, it should be treated as a serious and academically rigorous program component. Each project is unique to the student completing it, and thus there is flexibility in scheduling, approach, and style that is up to the discretion of the thesis advisor. The thesis component of the M.A. in Global TESOL at Xavier University is meant to demonstrate advanced study and inquiry into a particular facet of TESOL in relation to the experiences of candidates in the program. The thesis is a work of original scholarship, designed with guidance from a thesis advisor and committee. A copy of the final project is uploaded to the ProQuest Dissertations and Theses database and added to the College Archives. Restrictions: Must be enrolled in one of the following Levels: Graduate College of Health and Human Sciences School of Education
