EDU-570 Statistical Research
This course provides an overview of descriptive/inferential statistical procedures and basic educational research techniques within the context of educational measurement. Topics to be covered include: scales of measurement, correlation and regression, parametric (t-Tests, One Way/Factorial Analysis of Variance), non-parametric (Chi-squared Test of Independence, Mann-Whitney Ranking) analytic techniques, and quasi-experimental de-sign. Students will also understand the differences between quantitative and qualitative approaches to research. A required outcome is for students to conceptualize a preliminary proposal for their Capstone Action Project based upon the concepts covered during the semester.
