Week 4: Reflection
This week I learned the importance of selecting strategies to sustain and improve my action research project. The strategies discussed in the Harris et. al text described three strategies for sustaining and improving action research projects: force field analysis, the Delphi method, and the nominal group technique. Our discussion board topic generated a lot of discussion about the challenges we anticipate in completing in our action research project and we also discussed how we planned to overcome those challenges. Everyone agreed that time was the biggest challenge and we all encouraged each other by providing suggestions. Later this week I reviewed a comment from my blog concerning the structure of my action research plan and was appreciative of the positive feedback. I also met with my site supervisor who also provided positive feedback concerning my action research. I feel that I have a sound plan and am ready to proceed with my project.

Cornelia , your research plan appears very well organized and the data that you will collect is easy to access. I believe teachers have a great advantage in doing research when it comes to students and data. As a professional trainer and IT person I am learning more about the mindset of educators and their desire to help students learn better.
