Full Description
Researchers working to clearly identify a research topic and theme have difficulty deciding how to focus their work. Using a potential-based learning focus, detailed in this text, readers are challenged to consider their role as researcher, scholar, and leader to guide their reflective work. Transformative Potential Based Research: A Guide to Successfully Finding One's Place in Research provides both the theoretical support and the guiding activities to help readers decide on an area of potential-based research. The result will prove to be transformational.
To guide this work, Karen Moroz and Trish Harvey have developed a suitable framework. They invite readers to review the mountain metaphor shared within the framework and to keep the visual present at all times as they progress through the book. It is addressed often and readers will be invited to use, extend, and discuss it numerous times throughout their journey.
Transformative Potential Based Research supports instructors and students through all stages of research, including:
identifying and embracing relevant and essential topics,
crafting research questions that accurately and concisely convey the purpose(s),
exploring one's own connection to the issue,
developing and employing individual processes that lead to success, and
determining a potential-based frame that motivates the writer and frames the work
Perfect for courses such as: Dissertation; Research Methods; Educational Methods; Intro to Research Design; Academic Writing; Capstone Practicum; Educational Research; Understanding Research
