Practicing professionals need to be able to read, understand, and evaluate research studies. They need to be able to critically evaluate research data and to determine whether research methods and arguments are sound and valid. They need to be able to summarize, paraphrase, and synthesize published work, with appropriate documentation, to support their own professional decisions, claims, and arguments. This course is designed to support students in developing these skills.
