DOC640 Case Study and Action Research
Module 4 SLP
ACTION RESEARCH IMPLEMENTATION AND DATA COLLECTION
Module 1 described in detail how the SLP for this course will produce a document that will begin a working draft of a proposal for your Doctoral Study. Once again, it is important that you not be concerned that the work you do at this early date will obligate you to that topic later on. Your thinking should and will evolve as you take additional courses. However, you should take this assignment and the feedback you receive seriously because it will serve as the template you will follow as you develop your ideas more fully.
In Module 1 we provided the big picture of what you will put together throughout the course. It would be a very good idea to review it again. Note that the “deliverables” are listed for each module.
As a review, the deliverable for Module 3 was as follows:
Module 3: How would I classify the appropriate study design (explanatory, descriptive, etc.)? Describe how you would classify your design and explain the rationale for your design choice. Briefly discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the approach. (2-3 pages).
In thinking about a possible topic for your Doctoral Study, consider the following questions:
Module 4: What kind of data would I need for my doctoral research and why? Where could I obtain it? How would I approach gaining access to the data? How would I analyze it? (2-3 pages)
SLP Assignment Expectations
Although the SLP is a less formal document than a case study, it is expected that you follow APA convention at the doctoral level. Also, although you are asked for your opinion, remember that it is good practice to avoid writing in the first person. Instead, focus on stating the facts as you perceive them to be while writing in the third person—and cite supporting sources.
This assignment will be assessed by the SLP Rubric.
