ESL 6301 - Research Methods in ESL

Credits: 3
This course introduces teacher candidates to research concepts, research design, and analysis specific to ESL and second language education. Each candidate performs action research which may include comparative studies, pre- and post-test evaluations, investigation of an issue, selection of samples, and submission of a written interpretation of data. Candidates review research literature and collect data throughout the semester while in a local public school setting. Some attention will be given to self-reflection on lesson planning and practice teaching.
