Teacher as Creative Practitioner-Scholar: Action Research
$660.00
Action Research is a valid methodology for practitioners to participate in knowledge creation, theory generation, and to test
assumptions. Like other forms of research, it is a systematic study of teaching practices centered on observation and discovery, but Action Research crosses disciplines and is a scholarship of community service. It supports creative and conscious teaching.
This advanced-level online course brings together teaching artist scholars in a seminar format to learn a systematic study of teaching practices. Over 11 weeks, participants will learn how observation and reflection-in-action strengthen anti-biased teaching; learn the principles and theories of Action Research; and plan, implement, and present a small study based on individual interests.
Completion of Action Research is required for scholars to enroll in other courses in TACPS (Teacher as Creative Practitioner Scholar) which includes: TACPS: Creativity and TACPS: Democratizing Research Literature. The prerequisite for this course is Luna’s Summer Institute, DIDC-A, prior TACPS seminar, or permission of Instructor. Taught by Luna founder and Pedagogy Director, Dr. Patricia Reedy.
