Week 2 - What I've learned

I have met with my site supervisor to begin narrowing down my action research project.  I didn't think she'd be open to at least 1 topic, but she is fully interested in all 3.  It will be hard narrowing down which one I'll pick.

This week I also learned that there are 9 different areas that action research falls into.  They are as follows:

1.     Staff development

2.     Curriculum development

3.     Individual teacher(s)

4.     Individual student(s)

5.     School culture/community

6.     Leadership

7.     Management

8.     School performance

9.     Social justice or equity issues

I also was able to find examples for each of these categories.  I believe my 3 action research topics fall into School culture/community and school performance.
