Doctoral Research Project II is the next step for DSL doctoral candidates to develop and complete their research project. It provides a focused review of the research method that will be employed.

Discussion: Progress Reports (16)

Discussions are collaborative learning experiences. Therefore, the student will submit weekly progress reports throughout the course. The purpose of these discussions is to ensure that the student and their chair understand the work that the student has done and the steps needed to complete it. For each discussion, the student will write a short, informal thread detailing his/her work up to this current module. The thread should be between 150 and 400 words in length. No peer replies are required; however, the student is encouraged to read the peers’ threads and provide encouragement to foster a sense of community.

Doctoral Research Project Guide: Tasks (9)

The student will locate the task he/she wants to complete in the Doctor of Strategic Leadership Doctoral Research Project Guide. The student must read the information concerning the task, complete the task requirements, and then submit the task to Canvas. After the student submits the task, the student’s faculty member will review the completed task and provide feedback. The student will review the faculty member’s feedback and make any necessary adjustments to the task, then resubmit it in Canvas until the faculty member approves the task and the student receives full credit for the assignment.
