Coursework in Design and Research Methods

Course Title	Course Description	Semester	Location
EDUC-R690 Application of Research Methods to Instructional Systems Technlogy	Problems of research are taken up with special emphasis on research designs for instructional systems technology. Students participate in report authorship, article critiquing and other inquiry-related projects.	Fall 2009	Indiana University
EDUC-R711 Readings in Instructional Technology	This course is an introduction for beginning graduate students inquiry for education. The aim of the course is to impart an understanding of the language of social science inquiry, the goals and use of research, and procedures for generating, analyzing and interpreting both qualitative and quantitative data.	Fall 2009	Indiana University (distance)
EDUC-Y502 Intermediate Statistics Applied to Education	In this class, students are introduced to statisitic quantitative measurement. We are pushed to understand numbers when we reach them in research and to identify abuses of these numbers.	Fall 2010	Indiana University
EDUC-Y520 Strategies for Educational Inquiry	This course is an introduction for beginning graduate students inquiry for education. The aim of the course is to impart an understanding of the language of social science inquiry, the goals and use of research, and procedures for generating, analyzing and interpreting both qualitative and quantitative data.	Fall 2009	Indiana University (distance)
EDUC-Y611 Qualitative Inquiry in Education	This course serves as an introduction to qualitative inquiry methods. Practical application is provided in the form of a mini-study as a major class project.	Spring 2010	Indiana University
EDUC-Y604 Multivariate Analysis in Educsational Research	This course focuses on the General Linear Model (GLM) and its extensions, and the various forms it takes in the multivariate context. A range of multivariate statistical analysis procedures are considered to examine relationships between multiple variables and comparisons are made to their univariate equivalent.	Spring 2011	Indiana University
INFO-I541 Human-Computer Interaction Design	This class imparts, through practical application, mechanisms and techniques for facilitating design.	Spring 2010	Indiana University
INFO-I542 Foundations of HCI	This class offers a survey overview of the field of Human-Computer Interaction Design. It introduces the main themes of HCI set generally in a historical context.	Fall 2011	Indiana University
INFO-I590 Topics in Informatics: Computer Supported Cooperative Work	This class explores the issues involved in designing tools to support cooperative and collaborative tasks.	Spring 2010	Indiana University
INFO-I604 Human Computer Interaction Design Theory	This class delves into design theory as a whole by surveying the literature and carrying out investigative/exploratory projects.	Fall 2010	Indiana University
IDE716 Capstone Practicum	Here I applied my skills in a real situation. This involved problem analysis and definition, learner and situation analysis, specification of objectives and assessment criteria, instructional strategies selection, prototyping and implementation and evaluation planning.	Fall 2008	Syracuse University (distance)
IDE604 Design and Management of Distance Education	This class examined the organization, design and delivery of distance education programs emphasizing adult and higher education. It focused on designs that promote learning at a distance. Separate consideration is given to student, facilitator, course, logistic, and management subsystems. This class includes exposure to a wide variety of distance learning tools and scenarios.	Fall 2010	Syracuse University (distance)
IDE651 Message Design for Digital Media	This class combined message design theory with basic technology skills development as we learned about creating technology-based or -enhanced instructional materials.	Fall 2007	Syracuse University (distance)
IDE735 Modeling, Simulations and Gaming in Education	An overview of modelling and simulations for instructional purposes was explored in this class. This included review and analysis of appropriate kinds of modeling and simulation activities to support different learning outcomes.	Summer 2007	Syracuse University (distance)
