Education-Related Dissertations & Theses

While the ideas we’ve presented above are a decent starting point for finding a research topic in education, they are fairly generic and non-specific. So, it helps to look at actual dissertations and theses in the education space to see how this all comes together in practice.

Below, we’ve included a selection of education-related research projects to help refine your thinking. These are actual dissertations and theses, written as part of Master’s and PhD-level programs, so they can provide some useful insight as to what a research topic looks like in practice.

  • From Rural to Urban: Education Conditions of Migrant Children in China (Wang, 2019)
  • Energy Renovation While Learning English: A Guidebook for Elementary ESL Teachers (Yang, 2019)

Doctor of philosophy in education evaluation, measurement and statistics specialization.

The School of Education has launched a STEM-designated PhD in Educational Statistics and Research Methods . We encourage new students to explore that program. This page is for students admitted to the Evaluation, Measurement, and Statistics specialization in Fall 2019 and earlier.

Drawing on the diverse methodological expertise of faculty, the Evaluation, Measurement, and Statistics (EMS) specialization offers a comprehensive range of courses designed to prepare students to develop, critically evaluate, and properly use quantitative and mixed methodologies to advance educational research. The EMS faculty believes that fundamental contributions to educational methodology can be accomplished through study of a wide variety of areas in research methods. Students in this specialization

  • Understand recent developments in psychometric theory, as well as technical issues underlying construction and use of tests for selection, placement, and instruction.
  • Develop skills in advanced statistical modeling using a variety of software and have an opportunity to examine how these models are applied to school effectiveness, economic and social stratification, the structure of human abilities, and achievement growth.

Graduate student Dandan Chen stands next to her research poster

Program Coordinator: Dr. Teomara Rutherford

Specialization Coordinator: Dr. Zachary Collier

Specialization Courses

In addition to the Doctoral Core Courses, the following specialization courses are required of all students in the Evaluation, Measurement and Statistics specialization:

  • EDUC 863: Principles of Program Evaluation
  • EDUC 873: Multilevel Models in Education
  • EDUC 826: Mixed Methods in Social Science Research

Note: Students must take one additional methodology course as an elective; this elective must be approved as part of the student’s Individual Program Plan.

Sample Course Schedules

Sample EMS course schedules for students who enter the Ph.D. program in the following semesters are available through the links below.

  • Students entering in the Fall of odd years
  • Students entering in the Fall of even years

Specialization Requirements

All Ph.D. students in EMS must complete the following additional requirements.

Methods Core Courses

Students in EMS must chose the following three quantitative methodology courses to satisfy the research Methods Core requirement.

  • EDUC 812: Regression and Structural Equation Modeling
  • EDUC 865: Educational Measurement Theory
  • EDUC 874: Applied Multivariate Data Analysis

Specialization Area Exam

The Specialization Area Exam in EMS is designed to assess a student’s proficiency in integrating various aspects of research methodology to address substantive issues in education. The exam is to be taken at the beginning of the fourth year of study and is organized as a take-home exam spanning no more than three days.

The exam consists of two parts. The first part is based on the course work in EMS, covering topics in statistical methodology, educational measurement, and evaluation. The second part is based on the dissertation topic area.

The student, with consultation from the adviser, develops a reading list for the specialization examination. The reading list needs approval by the EMS faculty. The entire area faculty is involved in developing questions and reading the exam.

Students will be notified of their results within three weeks of submitting their exam. Should a student not demonstrate satisfactory performance on the exam, the student will have one attempt to retake the exam, scheduled at the end of the semester in which the exam was taken. Failure to demonstrate satisfactory performance on the retake of the exam will result in termination from the program. This requirement may be waived in an exceptional case if the EMS faculty deems it appropriate to do so.

Recent Graduates

Currently the market for students with skills and competencies afforded by this specialization is quite strong, in comparison to the overall academic market. EMS graduates will be well prepared for careers in applied education research in several arenas in both the for-profit and non-profit sectors, such as:

  • Tenure-track or research faculty at Research-I universities
  • Research/evaluation staff at national research organizations (e.g., Abt, AIR, Mathematica, MDRC, RAND, Westat)
  • Research/evaluation staff at local research organizations (e.g., Research for Action, Branch Associates, Research for Better Schools)
  • Research/psychometric staff at national measurement organizations (e.g., College Board, CTB, ETS, Harcourt/Riverside, Pearson)
  • Research/evaluation Staff in federal agencies (e.g., Institute of Education Sciences) and regional agencies (e.g., REL Mid-Atlantic)
  • Research/evaluation Staff at local school districts and state education agencies

Alumni profile, akisha osei sarfo.

“I chose UD because of the faculty and mutual research interests at the time. I wanted to expand my analytic expertise but also have opportunities to apply them in educational contexts. I was able to learn both in the classroom and through internships at places such as the Delaware Department of Education and the US Census Bureau. The faculty I worked with had genuine care for my success in the classroom and in my career. My work with my advisor Dr. Elizabeth Farley-Ripple and Dr. Henry May led to a dissertation fellowship/grant with the American Education Research Association (AERA). I also came back to work as a research assistant professor with the Center for Research in Education and Social Policy (CRESP) under Dr. May.”

Test, measurement, and evaluation: Understanding and use of the concepts in education

Profile image of Jephtar Adu-Mensah

2020, International Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education

Test, measurement, and evaluation are concepts used in education to explain how the progress of learning and the final learning outcomes of students are assessed. However, the terms are often misused in the field of education, especially in Ghana. The objective of the study was to thoroughly explain the concepts to assist educationists and researchers in the field of education to better apply them in educational discourses. The study also suggests best practices in setting test items in measuring students' learning outcomes while showing policy directions to assist educationists and researchers in the field of educational evaluation.

A.P.H. PUBLISHING CORPORATION

Educational measurement and evaluation refers to the use of educational assessments and the analysis of data such as scores obtained from educational assessments to understand the abilities of the students. The approaches overlap with those in psychometric. Educational measurement and evaluation is the assigning of numerals to traits such as achievement, interest, attitudes, aptitudes, intelligence and performance. The purpose of principle and training in educational measurement and evaluation is typically to measure abilities and levels of attainment of the students in areas such as reading, writing, mathematics, science, humanities, social science and so forth. Traditionally, attention focuses on whether assessments are reliable and valid. Educational measurement and evaluation is largely concerned with the analysis of data from educational assessments or tests. Typically, this means using total scores on assessments, whether they are multiple choice or open-ended and marked using marking instructions or guides. In technical terms, the pattern of scores of students for individual items is used to infer so-called scale locations of students, the “measurements”. This process is one form of scaling. Essentially, higher total scores give higher scale locations, consistent with the traditional and everyday use of total scores. One of the aims of applying theory and techniques in educational measurement and evaluation is to try to place the results of different tests administered to different groups of students on a single or a common scale through processes known as test equating. The rationale is that different assessments usually have different difficulties, the total scores cannot be directly compared. The goal of trying to place the results on a common scale is to allow comparison of the scale locations inferred from the totals via scaling processes. This bookis specially prepared for the student and teachers of Master of Arts, Master of Science, Master of Philosophy in Educational Technology & Education and Doctor of Philosophy in Educational Technology & Education.

Assessment of teaching and learning internationally and within Nigeria formed the crux of the paper. The focus is the basic and secondary education levels. The main objective is to demonstrate that assessment of teaching and learning are core to education delivery. The concept of assessment was analyzed. Cases of assessments in Africa were cited and compared. Then the analysis went in-depth into the frameworks for assessing teaching and learning internationally and within Nigeria. It revealed the insufficient assessments so far in the Nigerian education system and the commendable decision of the Minister of Education in 2012 to set up a national committee to development national blueprint for assessing learning achievements in Nigeria.

Measurement and Evaluation are key components of education and the teaching-learning process. Teaching and learning are incomplete without the process of measurement and evaluation, and the extent to which instrument objectives are attained is achieved through the process of measurement and evaluation. Hence the whole essence of teaching and learning is to find out whether learners have mastered the competences, skills, knowledge and ability required of them at any level of education which will enable them progress and contribute to societal development. This paper takes a look at the relevance of educational measurement and evaluation to the teaching-learning process. Measurement and evaluation as the paper pointed out havehelped in the understanding of students' problems, acknowledgement of individual differences, motivating students to study harder, measurement of educational progress and achievement among others. The paper concludes with recommendation thatclassroom teachers should be abreast with the various techniques involved in testing, measuring and evaluating their teaching-learning activities.

The study sought to find out whether Junior High School teachers in the Sissala East Municipality of Ghana follow the basic prescribed principles in the construction, administration and scoring of classroom achievement tests. A descriptive survey design was adopted for the study. The study employed multistage sampling techniques (purposive, stratified, and simple random sampling procedures) to select a sample of 248 teachers from the Sissala East Municipality. A questionnaire was used for the data collection and its reliability was 0.8. Data were analysed using frequencies, means, and standard deviation. The results showed that generally, Junior High Schools teachers in the Sissala East Municipality adhere to most principles of test construction and test administration but had little knowledge of the principles in the scoring test. It was recommended that more workshops and in-service training should be organized for teachers in Junior High Schools concerning their testing practices (i.e., construction, administration and scoring of tests).
