An underlying theory in the field of education is that research can improve classroom practice. Education professionals in this course are provided with an introduction to the fundamentals of research. They examine contemporary educational research and develop knowledge and skills in applications of theoretical frameworks; quantitative, qualitative, and action research methodologies; development of research questions; and compliance with ethical responsibilities of the researcher. Education professionals also complete an initial review of literature relevant to an identified research question.
