概要

Building the foundations of one's research skills are critical in the first year of master degree studies. There are many different approaches to research and the focus of this research seminar is to explore case study and field based research approaches and methodologies. Weekly seminars will include the reading of one to two case studies and/or peer reviewed journal articles, followed by open discussions. To build field-based research skills, will include field studies as part of seminar activities. Students will be invited to listen to the case study presented by Prof. McDonald for the first half of the seminar to be followed by interactive discussions based on the case study questions. Research Seminar A and B are taught together consecutively so all students who are interested in taking Prof. McDonald's research seminar must sign up for both Seminar A and B.

目標

1) improve reading comprehension 2) develop knowledge sets about environmental issues 3) develop analytical abilities 4) improve research related debate/discussions abilities in English 5) build research presentation skills

授業外の学習

Each week students will be required to read one to two case studies and/or peer reviewed journal articles for lecture. The research seminar discussions will be based on the readings, so advanced preparation is critical not only for seminar participation but to ensure each student builds the knowledge sets, reading comprehension and analytical skills for thesis compilation and writing.

所要時間: 190 minutes of outside classwork is required.
