Expanded Course Description
This course will focus on building your skills as a producer of high quality original research, although in the process, you will also improve your skills as a consumer. The course emphasizes hands-on practice for building the skills you need to conduct your own research and evaluate the research of others. You and your classmates will be working together to design, analyze, and discuss your research. In addition, you will be individually writing up your research throughout the term in separate writing assignments. You will receive feedback on your writing, and at the end of the term, you will revise your writing assignments and synthesize them into a single research paper that includes a literature review, a correlational research study, and a related experimental research study. You will also present your research project to the class to gain practice communicating research effectively. This course is the final course in the 301-303 series. You will be building on the critical thinking skills that you practiced in 301 and the data analysis skills that you gained in 302 in order to design, implement, analyze, draw conclusions from, write up, and present scientific research in psychology. |
