Grant Workshop: Designing and Funding Program Research

Facilitated by Joanne Giordano and Holly Hassel

Zoom

In this interactive workshop, participants will learn about strategies for developing research studies that contribute to disciplinary knowledge while also collecting data to help programs make evidence-based decisions. The facilitators will take participants through the process of developing a research study based on problems or issues within a local program context, distinguishing between program research and an individual classroom project, seeking funding, writing a grant proposal, and using research results to inform program development work. The presentation will focus on research that supports educational equity for students, but participants can explore other program-level research interests. Participants will have an opportunity to share their research or grant proposal ideas and receive peer feedback from the facilitators and other attendees.

Leveraging Student Self-Assessment to Enhance Writing Programs

We will share findings from three years of data collection from a first-year writing program at a large public university. We will invite participants to consider how student self-assessment can be used to advocate for different writing program needs, to inform faculty development, and to identify disparate student experiences.
