Non-Expedited New Curriculum Dr. Kakali Bhattacharya presented an overview of the Qualitative Graduate Certificate. The Council had questions about evidence that such a program is meeting an employment need and that this certificate program would benefit students. There also were questions about whether existing qualitative research methods courses in other programs would count as credit towards this certificate program. Dr. Tim Steffensmeier, Dr. Kris Boone, Dr. David Proctor, Mary Tolar, and Lori Kniffin presented an overview of the PhD in Leadership Communication. The Council raised questions about the logistics of an interdisciplinary degree program being created by three units that do not individually offer doctoral degrees and asked questions about the intended career opportunities for those who earn a PhD in Leadership Communication. On behalf of the Academic Affairs Committee, Dr. Haiyan Wang moved to approved the new curriculum items as presented. The motion passed with one “nay” vote and two abstentions for the PhD in Leadership Communication proposal.

5. Graduate Student Affairs Committee- Abbey Nutsch, Chair The committee had no new business to report.
6. Graduate School Committee on Planning- Brett DePaola, Chair Reading One:
Graduate Admissions standards related to English Proficiency
Chapter 1, Section B, 2. Graduates of foreign colleges and universities:
The Graduate School requires each international applicant whose native language is not English to
demonstrate competence in the English language by achieving a satisfactory score (defined below) on
the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the International English Language Testing
System (IELTS) and Pearson Test of English (PTE). The TOEFL, IELTS or PTE is required to ensure
that the student’s progress toward a degree is not jeopardized by language barriers. The TOEFL (K-
State TOEFL school code 6334) is offered several times a year throughout the world by the Educational
Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey. International applicants are advised to take the TOEFL as early
as possible to avoid delays in the processing of their applications for admission. However, the test date
should be no older than eighteen months from the application deadline for international applicants.
Check the Graduate School website for exact dates each year. An applicant who has received a degree
4
in the last two years from a United States college or university is exempt from this requirement.
However, individual programs may require demonstration of English language proficiency.
7. Graduate School Committee on Assessment and Review- Michael Herman, Associate Dean Today is the deadline for programs under a full program review to submit their program review report. Eleven programs are undergoing a full program review and 17 programs are undergoing a mid-cycle review. Some of the programs under mid-cycle review have sub-programs, which also must be reviewed.
8. Graduate Student Council Information- Amanda Martens, President
March 4 is the deadline to submit nominations for the Alumni Association graduate student awards for outstanding academics and outstanding leadership and service.
The GSC is hosting a fundraiser at Panera Bread on March 8. Proceeds from sales between 4-8pm will be donated to the GSC.
The GSC will soon be accepting nominations for GSC Executive Officers for the 2016-2017 academic year. https://ksugsc.wufoo.com/forms/z1hin0v81qy7i7v/
Faculty are encouraged to recognize the accomplishments of their graduate student by submitting a recognition for the Notable Achievement Newsletter. March 27 is the deadline to submit recognitions
Graduate Student Appreciation week is April 4-8. The GSC will host an Awards and Recognition Reception on April 5 to recognize graduate student accomplishments within the last year. Academic Colleges have been encouraged to host one appreciation event/activity during the week to show appreciation of the graduate students in their college.
9. University Research and Scholarship- Dr. Michael Herman Survey of Earned Doctorate- please see attachment Summary of how K-State compares to national data:
Lack of diversity at K-State (our graduate students tend to be more male and more white than national average)
KSU graduate students have a lower debt level
KSU graduate students tend to engage in more interdisciplinary work
Time to degree is a small issue for KSU

Non-Expedited New Course Educational Leadership
#1 EDLEA 848. Philosophies of Inquiry. (3) Fall. In this course, students will explore a variety of philosophical
stances that underpin research methods. The course focuses on the nature of reality (ontology) and
knowledge (epistemology). Students are expected to develop a personal philosophy of inquiry that will help
inform their theoretical and methodological approaches to research. Recommended Pre-Requisite: EDLEA
838.
IMPACT: There is no negative impact to another unit. Rather, this course should be utilized as a
complementary course to other units. In this course, students will develop their personal philosophies of
inquiry, which should then be applied to their respective research endeavors. Thus it is an interdisciplinary
course that should only serve to enhance students’ research agendas, regardless of discipline or field.
RATIONALE: In this course, students will explore a variety of philosophical stances upon which different
education research methods are built. With a focus on the nature of reality (ontology) and the nature of
knowledge (epistemology), the course will challenge students to question the ways in which education
knowledge is produced, interpreted, and utilized. By the end of the course, students are expected to develop a
personal philosophy of inquiry that will help inform their theoretical and methodological approaches to
education research.
EFFECTIVE DATE: Fall 2016

#2 EDLEA 928. Narrative and Arts-Based Inquiry in Qualitative Research. (3) Fall-every other year. Students
will be introduced to narrative and arts-based inquiry to inform their qualitative research projects. Students will
identify a genre from narrative and arts-based inquiry to prepare representational and methodological
reflection pieces to inform their future research. Topics covered include critical autoethnography, creative non-
fiction, visual representation, mixed-medium art and more. Pre-Requisite: EDLEA 838.
IMPACT: There is no negative impact to any college of audience. In fact, if students use this form data
representation in their dissertation or publishable papers, they have a strong chance of being noticed by their
respective disciplines for engaging a broad audience, community engagement, and for innovative work.
Additionally, if students choose to use this approach in their dissertation, they would have done a large amount
of reading that could inform both their methodology and data representation chapters.
RATIONALE: Qualitative research is multidimensional where students need to learn how to represent data in
compelling ways that can be taken up within and outside of academic boundaries to become key agents of
change, especially within certain social justice agendas. For this reason, students need to learn the various
ways in which data can be presented in accessible, compelling manner, employing the creative arts that would
engage a broad variety of audience. In this class, students will learn various options in the creative
presentation of narrative data.
EFFECTIVE DATE: Fall 2016

#3 EDLEA 958. Case Study in Qualitative Research. (3) Spring. This is an advanced research course on
qualitative case study design and application in social science research. Topics include types of case studies,
defining the case, site, and sample selection, data collection methods, within-case and cross-case analysis,
and writing case reports. Students will conduct and critique a case study appropriate to their discipline.
Recommended Pre-Requisite: EDLEA 838.
IMPACT: There is no negative impact to any college of audience. For faculty, the impact has implications for
reducing their time in mentoring students in basic skills required to design and conduct a qualitative research,
using the case study method. Time can be better spent between faculty and advisees on more advanced
topics while students learn and hone their research skills in this class.
RATIONALE: This is an advanced course for all graduate students which delves into the complete process of
designing a qualitative case study and focuses on students’ hands-on experiences of conducting case studies.
Often students who have considered or attempted using case study approach for their own research find the
knowledge and skills needed to actually conducting a case study is beyond what they have gained from other
introductory courses. Often faculty members take their own time to mentor students in these areas and it is
time consuming. Even with guidance from their advisors, for students, the experience of trying to learn the
method while attempting a research is overwhelming and can be counterproductive. If students are taught
these skills and given opportunities to participate in the research process and practice the research skills, then
they can perform better in research and work more closely with faculty and/or their advisors for high quality
research.
EFFECTIVE DATE: Summer 2016

#4 EDLEA 968. Discourse Analysis. (3) Summer. Students will be exposed to the broad and complex field of
discourse analysis. Students will learn about different theoretical and methodological approaches to analyzing
the various forms and conceptualizations of “discourse”. The course will weave together theory and method,
as it will cover discourse analysis as both method and methodology. Pre-Requisite: EDLEA 838 or equivalent.
IMPACT: There is no negative impact to another unit. Rather, this course should be utilized as a
complementary course to other units. For students who wish to engage in discourse analysis for their research
(e.g., dissertation, thesis, etc.), this an opportunity for students to develop their research designs, practice
analyzing discourse, and writing about their results.
RATIONALE: In this course, students will be exposed to the broad and complex field of discourse analysis,
particularly as it relates to education research. Students will learn about different theoretical and
methodological approaches to analyzing the various forms and conceptualizations of “discourse”. The course
will weave together theory and method, as it will cover discourse analysis as both a method and methodology.
While the course will cover a range of approaches (e.g., sociolinguistics, critical discourse analysis,
Foucauldian discourse analysis, etc.), students can expect to explore one approach in-depth through an
applied project.
EFFECTIVE DATE: Summer 2016

#5 EDLEA 978. Qualitative Data Management and Analysis Using Nvivo. (3) Summer. Students will have
opportunity to explore the relationships between current technologies and the theory and methods of research.
Students will learn to use qualitative analysis software, Nvivo, with specific data sets for preparation of data
files, management of text and image, creation of codes, memos, queries models, and formation of reports.
Pre-Requisite: EDLEA 838 or equivalent. EDLEA 938 is highly recommended prior to taking this course.
IMPACT: There is no negative impact to any college of audience. The impact has implications for reducing
faculty time to mentor students in skills required to manage multiple data sources, document data analysis
processes, and create linkage/tracking systems amicable for writing up the research findings scholarly and
appropriate for their intended audience. Further, this course has implications in helping students progress in
their data analysis and representation as an independent and accountable learner through peer reviews, team
teaching, and presenting deliverables to class.
RATIONALE: Often students who work with qualitative research struggle with data management, analysis,
and write-up of findings, organizing multiple data sources, cross-tracking raw data and analytical/interpretative
data, detailing research processes, and generating evidence-supported proposals, dissertations, or research-
based reports they are involved with. This course is designed to assist the students in their utilization of Nvivo,
a qualitative analysis software, for their qualitative inquires. This course provides the students opportunity to
learn iteratively through modeling, application or experimentation, feedback, and application; it builds on real
projects relevant to the students’ own discipline and allows more tailored assistance that better meets
individual students’ needs in progressing in their research projects.
EFFECTIVE DATE: Summer 2016

#6 EDLEA 988. Differentiated Research. (3) Fall. Students will complete a research project of their choice by
breaking the project into smaller components, setting goals, maintaining accountability, and preparing
deliverables towards the completion of the project. Projects can include theory, methodological work, book
chapters, publishable papers, dissertation proposal or chapter drafts, grant work, and more. Recommended
Pre-Requisite: EDLEA 838 or an advanced research course.
IMPACT: There is no negative impact to any college of audience. The impact has implications for reducing
faculty time to mentor students while students are completing their research projects. Additionally, this course
will also help students in Educational Leadership who needs guidance in completing their proposals. Further,
this course has implications in helping students finish their proposals and dissertations in a timely manner
through accountability, partnering with other students, and bringing deliverables to class.
RATIONALE: Students often need help with their qualitative research projects beyond the scope of the
coursework, especially when they are writing up literature reviews, publishable papers, proposals, or
dissertation chapters. Often students choose a methodological approach that require closer engagement,
attention, and feedback. Students also tend to fall behind when they have to do this work on their own without
support. Therefore, this course supports students in their research projects in a differentiated manner,
honoring that each student’s project is different and therefore needs different kind of attention. Students make
a contract with the instructor (with their advisor’s approval) about what they want to accomplish in this class
and are held accountable to the contract.

RATIONALE: These courses were approved by the Women’s Studies faculty to count toward the
graduate certificate in Women’s Studies.
IMPACT: DED 820 was submitted for approval for the graduate certificate in Women’s Studies by the
Assoc. Dean for Research and Graduate Study in the College of Education, Dr. Linda Thurston. She
clearly supports it. Her email states that “Our SLOs align well with the SLOs of the Women’s Studies
graduate certificate. The competencies of understanding, examining and communicating positionality
relate to the first and last WS SLOs. Positionality examines one position in a specific context related
to gender, sexuality race, ethnicity, ability status, and positions of privilege. The second and third WS
SLOs are reflected in all the course SLOs, but especially 3 and 5. This course embodies the
multidisciplinary nature of social justice education and demonstrates the interdisciplinarity that also
characterizes Women’s Studies”.
