TLPL860

Prerequisite: TLPL690; or students who have taken courses with comparable content may contact the department. Credit only granted for: EDPS730 or TLPL860. Formerly: EDPS730. Conceived as both an analysis of case study methods and a laboroatory for applying course content to research topics or projects of interest to students, it addresses a range of conceptual, methodological, ethical, political, and logistical issues embedded in efforts to conduct thoughtful, "disciplined" case study research. Since this focuses on case study research, it may be particularly helpful to students who are exploring various approaches to research or who are contemplating using case study methods in their theises and/or dissertations.
