Undertaking a Professional Doctorate in Education (EdD) can be a daunting yet career-defining task. Through engaging with research, increasing your networks, and conducting your own research project, you will advance your professional practice and understanding of your field.
This second edition of Completing Your EdD is the newly updated essential text to guide you through your doctorate. It provides a thorough and comprehensive guide intended to accompany you as you successfully progress through your EdD. It is packed with critical information covering key topics from both the taught modules you will undertake and advice for conducting your own research project. Updated coverage includes the process of developing a research proposal, researcher positionality tensions and dilemmas, researching digital spaces and related ethical issues, conducting a literature review, theoretical frameworks, the relationship with your supervisor, and much more. Bridging theory and practice, chapters include practical, real-life examples taken from EdD students' experiences and work, as well as extracts offered by practitioners.
