University of Prince Edward Island
Principal Area of Educational Competence #2: Research Knowledge
​
Research Knowledge includes a demonstration of "competence in research theories and methodologies, as well as critical analysis of current quantitative and qualitative research issues in educational studies" (PhD Handbook, p. 18).
​
Key opportunities to increased my research knowledge over the past 15 months included:
1) Quantitative research paper written for ED 7000
2) Factor analysis class presentation for ED 7000
3) Grounded theory class presentation for ED 7010
4) Revised methodology paper for ED 7020
5) Revised small-scale research paper for ED 7010
​
For my Artifacts, I have chosen my small-scale research paper because it clearly outlines the steps involved in narrative research, as well as my revised methodology paper because I have submitted it to Kaleidoscope: A Graduate Journal of Qualitative Communication Research and am awaiting feedback from the peer review process.
