| Purpose: This module builds on Research Theories and Methods in Education (RSE4801) to provide the opportunity to conceptualise and/or to engage in an own research project in education. This entails the formulation of a research problem that emerges from a student's educational practice, the engagement with relevant theories and concepts, the development of a research design and reflection on research ethics. In this process students obtain the knowledge, skills and dispositions to participate in the generation of knowledge that could contribute towards quality and relevant education. It is expected that these research projects would speak to issues of decolonisaton, Afrikanisation and indigenisation of education and educational research. Students are also enabled to further their journey as researchers through further studies. |
