What: Designing your scholarly inquiry project workshop
When: June 7 @ 9 am-12:00 pm
Where: Delta Burnaby Hotel & Conference Centre 4331 Dominion Street Burnaby, British Columbia V5G 1C7
Pre-Registration Required: 20 Participants Maximum
This Workshop Overview: A systems overview of the elements of a scholarly inquiry project. We will identify where the common challenges are in progressing through the phases of conducting a scholarly inquiry project.
All Workshops Overview: Scholarly inquiry into student learning involves a systematic set of inquiry processes into student learning. Normally conducted within one’s own class, it is evidence-based, peer reviewed and publicly shared. Through structured facilitation and peer discussion, you will learn about finding appropriate literature, writing a researchable question, strategies for data collection and analysis, ethical requirements, and ways to disseminate your inquiry results.
During the Tuesday and Wednesday (June 7 and 8) of the Festival of Learning, four half-day workshops are being offered to any participant focused on learning how to design an inquiry project into teaching and learning (Part 1 June 7 (9- 12); Part 2 June 7 (1 – 4:30); Part 3 June 8 (9-12) and Part 4 June 8 (1 – 4:30). The workshops are hands-on and will assist you in transforming an idea for a project into a study that you can conduct at your institution.
Pre-registration is required for all four workshops (Parts 1, 2, 3 and 4). You can choose any combination of the four Parts. We suggest that attendees of Part 2 also attend Part 1. If you choose to attend all workshops/parts, at the end of the two days, you will have created the foundation for conducting your inquiry study and know how to proceed with implementing the study at your institution.
Prior research experience is not a prerequisite, nor is any experience with educational or pedagogical investigation. These workshops are designed to help faculty build new expertise, making use of their own background and experience brought from the classroom.
