Prepping for the final...

Tips... Go back in time so you can have studied even more diligently for class...

Tips... Refer to each of the study guides for tests 1 and 2.

Tips... Watch for more global questions

Tips... Watch for more global questions. For example, you are teaching Chinese in an elementary immersion program. You want to know how the English language skills of the immersion students compare to those of non-immersion students in the same school. Explain a study that you might conduct to understand this better. Include a few sentences about design, selecting participants, what data you will collect and how you might analyze it. Then briefly identify one possible threat to validity and reliability inherent in the study you describe.

Tips... Think about validity.... What are some different kinds of validity that we’ve talked about? For each of the following, ask a partner for a definition and how you might achieve. Construct Content Criterion Internal External Just research

Worry about threats... to internal and external validity... Define internal validity... Define external validity... Generally, how do you improve the external validity of a study?

Worry about threats... to internal and external validity... Ask a partner, what are 4 common threats to internal validity? For example... What’s the threat? Dr. Wi Ardo wanted to understand how well students gauge their own aptitude for FL learning. At the beginning of the semester he asks students to predict their final grade in the course in a percentage, 85%, 91% etc. Then he performs a correlation at the end comparing their predictions with their actual percentage at the end of the course.

Focus on Quality... and Quantity Know philosophical differences Explain difference in methods Given a study tell whether you would use qualitative or quantitative methods and why. Ex.: A researcher is interested in the feelings and experiences of adults enrolled in an ESL program. She wants to know what it is like to go back to school as an adult to learn a second language.
