Honours B: Developing a Research Proposal

Course aim

Building on Honours A, this course enables preservice teachers (PSTs) to develop a proposal for a professional inquiry project in which they investigate an aspect of their own practice and report on the impact of their teaching on children's young people's learning.

Course content

Preservice teachers will refine their literature review and methodology reports from Honours A: Introduction to Research in Education to develop a proposal for their inquiry project. Preservice teachers will develop an inquiry question, a plan for their data collection, data collection tools and revisit ethical considerations for their inquiry project.
