Webinar: Methodologically Speaking, What Do We Think
Scholar-Practitioners Need to Know?

This webinar will facilitate a discussion focusing on the need for a research methods curriculum in an applied education doctorate, and how this curriculum is made distinct and applicable for the practitioner-scholar. During the webinar, presenters will share their own instructional journeys with designing and teaching research methods and data analysis to online doctoral students.

Participants will be invited to share their own views on and approaches to teaching, practicing, and applying all things methods related in their respective EdD program.

At the end of the session, we hope that facilitators and participants, together, will have a deeper understand of relevant scholar-practitioner methods competencies for an applied doctorate, ways to teach these topics to an audience of practitioner-scholars, and share ideas for activities, projects, and other hands-on kinds of learning strategies.
