Listed below are 5 topics that may inspire you when selecting a theme for your Master’s dissertation research:
1: Autism awareness in the classroom
Accommodating students with special needs and developing a learner-friendly classroom environment is undoubtedly one of the key elements of teaching. However, despite research conducted by the CDC suggesting that approximately 1 out of 68 children is on the autism spectrum, little progress has been made to ensure that public schools and accompanying curriculum adequately accommodate different needs. Furthermore, the stigma surrounding autism stems from a lack of understanding about the condition. Perhaps research into how to appropriately inform educators and students alike about autism would make for a more equitable, hospital learning environment. This would make a worthwhile Master’s thesis topic to undertake.
2: Nutrition and its effects on education
It is widely known that ‘you are what you eat.’ Unfortunately, many students in the United States do not have the opportunity to enjoy nutritious meals on a daily basis. It would be pertinent to gain a better understanding of nutrition’s role in students’ academic performance and overall wellbeing. Furthermore, examining meal programs provided in schools could showcase if students truly have access to foods which meet dietary and nutritional needs.
3: Utilizing technology in the classroom
Technological advances are becoming ever prevalent in our modern lives. Rather than ignore this reality, it would be beneficial for educators to embrace technology into the learning environment. For a Master’s thesis, one could examine various technological teaching tools and evaluate efficacy in the teaching environment. As children become exposed to technology at younger ages, learning to adapt to the changes in attention span and learning styles are highly critical to maintaining an engaging classroom.
4: After-school programs
Due to financial strains and governmental cutbacks in public school budgets, the future of after-school programs is becoming increasingly uncertain. The significance of providing a safe after-school environment as well as fostering a student’s interest or hobby cannot be overlooked. As an educator, you can demonstrate your understanding of after-school programs and the role they play in developing healthier, happier students (research further supported by the U.S. Federal Government ).
5: Incorporating meditation in the classroom
New age mindfulness practices are becoming all the rage these days. Many proponents attest to the magnificent calming and therapeutic benefits of a few minutes of silent meditation each day. Mindfulness training programs for teachers, such as Mindful Schools , boast that including meditation practices in the daily curriculum will ‘build attention, self-regulation, and empathy’. A research study would be highly valuable if it could accurately support or refute these claims.
These are just a few ideas to guide you on your path to obtaining your prestigious Master’s degree in Education. By selecting a thesis topic that is ideal for you, you will fully demonstrate your knowledge and proficiency as a skilled educator.
