ED 877 - Quantitative Methods


The foundational concepts behind the research design, collection, and interpretation of quantitative social scientific data are examined. Students are expected to demonstrate an understanding of quantitative concepts by designing, implementing, and interpreting both individual and group quantitative research studies. Students learn to identify the particular analysis required and how to interpret the results of an array of commonly used quantitative methods. A graduate course in fundamentals of research, methods and design, or statistics, within the last three years, is recommended prior to this course. Steps in the development of the dissertation proposal and dissertation are integrated into the course. Submission of course artifacts to the Personal Learning Portfolio is required.
