Description
Fellows will continue to pursue inquiry about student literacy in their classrooms in both collaborative and independent ways and they will develop two critical documents that inform their research ? the Research Proposal and the Institutional Review Board (IRB) application. Fellows will build upon their work in the previous semester during which they analyzed samples of student work to gain insights into student learning and then designed their research question around the needs of their classroom, and developed their review of related literature.
Fellows will deepen their understanding of action research by refining their research questions as they operationalize key terms and monitor the design and implementation of their methodology for answering the questions. They will analyze various data collection methods to determine which methods are appropriate for their projects.
