Conducted in a work-place, or industry educational setting, the course will provide students with the opportunity to design, conduct and analyse research focussing on an issue of concern to them in an in-depth manner.

Objectives
After successfully completing this course, students should be able to:
1) Demonstrate an understanding of the role of research in guiding policy and practice
2) Demonstrate research planning, implementation and analysis skills
3) Demonstrate conceptual level understanding of their chosen work-place or industry problem.
Content
The specific content of the course will be a function of individual student topic selection. Nevertheless, the final written report will need to meet requirements of a report for that area of education (eg educational psychology, social foundations, special education) in terms of comprehensiveness of literature reviewed, and quality of both methodology and discussion of implications/recommendations.
