Description: This project aims to increase access to affordable, high-quality instructional materials for graduate students in the Kennesaw State University College of Education by developing a book and interactive learning resources focused on conducting literature reviews in education research and evidence-based practice. The project is expected to save students approximately $56,000 in textbook and materials costs while supporting their academic, professional, and research development. The materials will help graduate students, future researchers, and practitioners strengthen critical thinking, research, and analytical skills that are transferable to broader educational inquiry and data analysis. In addition, the project addresses a significant gap in methodological publications that provide practical guidance for reviewing literature in education research and practice, while also supporting instructors who integrate formative assignments and cumulative research projects such as concept papers, proposals, theses, and dissertations.
Participating IRML Team Members: Drs. Olga Koz & Anete Vásquez
