Formulating Research Questions and Designing Studies - 4/10/2023

  • Registration Closed

In this workshop, participants will brainstorm research ideas, write, and refine a measurable research question. You will discuss when IRB approval is required for their study. The basics of research design will be discussed and applied to their selected research question. 

After participating in this workshop, learners will be able to:

  1. Write a FINER (feasible, interesting, novel, ethical, relevant) educational research question;
  2. Specify an educational research area of interest;
  3. Evaluate whether they need IRB approval for their study;
  4. Select the correct design for their research question.

Recordings will be made available for viewing following the completion of each workshop. Viewing of recordings may not be substituted for participation in live workshops.
