LEAD 7899r - Project of Practice

(3-6) Credit Hours

The Project of Practice provides an opportunity to showcase the ability to (1) identify a current measurable learning program, (2) describe and relate that program to an extant knowledge base and (3) effectively evaluate the active program within the professional workplace. Identification of the learning program and agreement to perform evaluation must include approval by the cooperating agency. Description of the program will require a rigorous review of the literature regarding conceptual models underlying the program and, where possible, the identification of empirical outcomes of similar, previously implemented, learning programs. Effective measurement and evaluation of the program will first require the construction of an approved measurement and evaluation plan followed by a thorough implementation and completion of the plan. Final activities will include a formal presentation/defense of the Project of Practice to a committee.Prerequisites: Admission to candidacy or department head approval.Satisfactory Progress/No Progress
