CPED March Challenge Friday

Demystifying Quantitative Analysis for EdD Students: For Professors that are Non-Statisticians

In this session, we’ll empower doctoral candidate mentors to guide their mentees in identifying statistical analysis families, selecting the right fit for their research questions, and finalizing analyses based on sample type. Grounded in collaborative and experiential learning, this training leverages data-driven techniques inspired by Educational Data Mining research. Join us for an engaging exploration of best practices in mentoring quantitative research!
