What I've Learned in Week 2 - Action Research

This week in EDLD 5301 Action Research, I have learned how to identify areas in education that could benefit from further research. Some of these areas include professional development, leadership, school climate improvement, school performance, and curriculum development. I have identified with many of the proposed topics in these categories. I understand that action research is conducted after a need has been identified by an administrator, teacher or other stakeholder. I have began the process of developing my own action research plan. I chose a topic that interest me and would benefit my campus. I look forward to participating in this process and feel that it will allow me to actively engage in an activity that will result in a positive change for my school.

  1. I too, think this week helped me prepare to choose a topic for my action reaseach plan. It is also something that I feel strongly about and think it would benefit our campus. Interesting how it immediately makes you think of positive changes we have the ability to make on our campuses?

  2. I was surprised by the interesting, too. I hope I am not one of those that gets lost in the research. There is so much out there and I am adult ADD. I may never return once I get started. Bread crumbs?
    Good Luck.
