Digital Research for the Modern Musician We are always trying to find methods to make research and writing more meaningful to our students. How do we engage them with interesting topics so it can feel relevant to their current studies and future goals? My topic invites students to delve into online resources, looking to the past with focus on music history treatises, while comparing historical primary resources with modern music education trends. |

Creating Digital Research Proposal Posters in the Capstone Course: A Carefully Scaffolded Process This talk describes the process of guiding students through the task of developing research proposals and presenting them in a public forum for the Communication Studies capstone course. The research proposal process is new for most students and many struggle with the higher order critical thinking tasks associated with identifying relevant sources, reading research reports, developing a good research question, synthesizing research findings, constructing an argument for their research, conveying the content in a digital poster, and presenting the content a brief 2–3-minute oral presentation. This lighting talk describes the carefully scaffolded steps and assignments that take students through the process. These steps could also be used to help guide students through parts of writing a thesis or dissertation. |
