SFU EDUC 804: Choosing Your Tradition
	Big Idea Schedule Assignments Knowledge Forum

How do I choose?

There are a number of different ways to choose which tradition you'll focus on for your major term paper:

• A technology that interests you (say, intelligent tutors)
• A subject matter domain that interests you (say, mathematics or computer programming)
• A level of schooling that interests you (say, higher education or high school)

Below is a little table that I hope will help you narrow your focus. It describes some of the possible interests you might bring to the paper and the traditions I see as most relevant to those. Once you've identified one or two of the traditions as of possible interest, skim at least one of the papers I have assigned for class for that tradition. Talk with me about any questions you have regarding your choice.
