ED-6991: Master’s Project Writing Elements and Style

This course prepares students for a Master’s Project and the types of writing they will encounter in a more formal academic setting. Simultaneously, it strives to give students the perspectives and skills to make their own choices in adapting formal writing to serve their interests and goals. Students in the course practice many of the formal writing skills they will use in a research-based Master’s Project, especially: writing focused and answerable research questions; framing and writing reviews of literature; clearly attributing ideas and handling source material; choosing appropriate methods; framing findings; and providing overarching structure in a large project. The course consists of 7 synchronous meetings alternating with asynchronous lessons and peer review. Any student may register for the course, but it is primarily designed for those students intending to move on to ED-6990 (Master’s Project). By the conclusion of the course, students will have prepared a portfolio of approximately 20 pages of written work. Some or all of the portfolio material may then be revised in ED-6990 to a Master’s Project Proposal, and then eventually to part of the final Master’s Project.
