授業の目標・概要等 This course will teach you the skills of academic research and academic writing. It will focus more heavily on one or the other in alternate years.  You can therefore choose to take the course in the year that meets your more specific needs.  You are also welcome to take the course twice to gain a full coverage of both topics, but credit will only be awarded once.

This year’s focus will be on how to conceptualize and design your research.  You will consider how to best choose and design your research question. Then you will examine how to specifically design research that answers your question or questions.

A main focus of all discussions in this course will be “why do we do it this way?” – not to be prescriptive, but to give you a critical stance for your current and future research endeavors.
