AE 519 — Educator Self-Care Action Research
In this advanced course, educators will complete an investigative action-based research project. This project is parallel to our Mini Action Research projects done within the Graduate Learning Communities. Students will take the research discoveries from the prerequisite course ( ED 518 Educator Self-Care Foundational Exploration) and will implement the study within their home and work environment while working with other educators in their local educational contexts (peers, community-based professionals, building administrators) and from SMSU professor(s) and fellow classmates. Together, they will increase their understanding of the mechanisms for self-care by implementing, collecting data, and reflecting on the findings. 3 credits; A-F grading.
Prerequisites: ED 518
