Designed to foster "inquiry-mindedness," this book prepares
graduate students to develop a conceptual framework and conduct
inquiry projects that are linked to ongoing conversations in a
field. The authors examine different ways of knowing and show how
to identify a research question; build arguments and support them
with evidence; make informed design decisions; engage in
reflective, ethical practices; and produce a written proposal or
report. Each chapter opens with a set of critical questions,
followed by a dialogue among five fictional graduate students
exploring questions and concerns about their own inquiry projects;
these issues are revisited throughout the chapter. Other useful
features include end-of-chapter learning activities for individual
or group use. Useful pedagogical features include: * Framing
questions for exploration and reflection. * Chapter-opening
dialogues that bring in perspectives from multiple disciplines. *
Example boxes with detailed cases and questions for the reader. *
End-of-chapter activities and experiential exercises that guide
readers to develop their own inquiry projects. * Suggestions for
further reading.
