I like your topic and your plan. You seem to have everything mapped out and have an idea of how you're going to gather your data. I'm looking forward to following your research. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI also like your action research, in the step 4, "survey surrounding school district..." do you mean other schools within your district or another school district, if so, don't your think the amount of data is going to be to much for one person?
ReplyDeleteCathey, I like your topic of your action research plan. I believe technology now days can motivate almost any student if implemented adequately. Are you doing a survey to verify if technology increases reading fluency? I just got a little bit confused when I see at the end Implement Plan.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion your overall research plan looks very well thought.
I will be looking forward to your findings, keep us posted!
I like the simplicity of your written plan. The idea of researching other schools leadership teams prior to surveying students. That should add to the effectiveness of the survey construction. Good luck, and I look forward to following your blog.
ReplyDeleteI also like your plan. It looks like the information you will be looking for is very specific. Which will help you stay focused when gathering for information from surrounding districts and doing you surveys. I also believe that if it does start to get too big, because of your topic and the way your plan is structured, you will be able to refocus on specific information needed to complete your project. Good job
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to improve reading fluency! I may have missed it, but what initial data are you using to compare to the new data you will receive for your project?
ReplyDeletealso remember to renumber, we skipped #5 ;)
