課程概述 |
Course Description:
This class is to prepare doctoral students to develop advanced knowledge, logical thinking and practical abilities in designing, conducting and implementing quantitative research. Students are expected to train themselves through massive reading, interactive discussion, original research paper critique and research project design and presentation. Knowledge and skills related to quantitative research, including measurements, data collection and scientific writing, etc. will be discussed in this class. Critical and logical thinking and problem-solving abilities in developing quantitative research are expected after finishing this class.
