Description

This module is designed to provide participants with knowledge and understanding of theoretical foundations, processes and practices of educational and social research, and to enable them to apply this to their own critical evaluation, design and conduct of research in areas relevant to TESOL. The aims are to:

  • enable participants to understand and evaluate research in TESOL and related areas;
  • consider key issues in research design and field work;
  • expose students to a range of methods for data collection;
  • explore approaches to qualitative and quantitative data analysis and the possibility of combining methods;
  • assist participants in the development of coherent and informed research proposals grounded in a particular educational context

This is one of the core compulsory modules for the TESOL Pre Service MA programme.
