EDUC-6250: Participatory Action Research Theory: Theory and Practice

Leadership in urban environmental education requires one to be familiar with the language of research and evaluation and to be a wise consumer of the literature from a variety of fields. This class requires engagement in critical analysis, in-depth peer dialogue, and development of action research as a career-long habit of professional practice. Graduate students will develop their professional voice through writing and talking about research and evidence, working as peers to recognize the kinds of research and where each is optimally applied. An introduction to educational assessment and program evaluation will provide grounding in a fast-changing and often contentious world of data-driven decision-making.
