What are the expectations of the Capping Exercise?
The capping exercise (EDPS 900) is a *3-credit culminating course for students in the course-based master’s program. In this course students are expected to demonstrate skills of inquiry, reflection and critique and reflect on learning from their graduate experience. They will conduct a research inquiry that may entail analysis of a work-based problem, a critical literature review, a scholarly paper, development of professional or organizational resources, or evaluation of a program and/or policy. The scope and magnitude of the capping exercise will be the same as expected in a 3-credit graduate-level course. When the product is a written document it should be approximately 5000 words in length. Further details can be obtained from the Graduate Secretary or from the Department’s website.
