ED 751 Foundations of Inquiry: Quantitative Research

(3 credits)
This course is designed as the second of two courses which provide an overview of educational research methods. The knowledge and skills acquired in this set of courses will help prepare students to develop sound, coherent research studies based on current theory, methodology, and need in the field of education. This course will focus primarily on the basic designs, principles, and procedures used with experimental and quasi-experimental research. As this is an introductory course, it is not expected that students will fully master the intricacies and nuances of research design and execution. Instead, emphasis will be given to creating opportunities that help students appreciate and internalize the enduring understandings which underlie quantitative research, in general, and intervention research, in particular.
