My action research project is on improving school climate by improving relationship among staff members and providing team building activities through the year. I did not see a blog specific for school climate. Any ideas?
I see topics for Professional Development involving technology - my wondering is more general and includes building collaboration and morale. Would this be included in PLC's or something else?
Wondering: Staff development - In what ways might a whole group book study contribute to enhanced learning opportunities and increased student achievement, while increasing collaboration and morale of staff?
Accountability and follow-up of staff is extremely important to ensure that teachers are meeting the needs of students and to evaluate the implementation of the ideas presented through professional development.
I am a little confused! am I supposed to get my topic approved before I start doing my action research plan? I already started but have not seen my topic posted by the instructors. Please help!!
Although there's a group about homework, my topic is not there. The topic posted is about overloading students with homework. Is there any one working with homework and how it helps to increase students achievement?
My research topic is on the use of inquiry in social studies to improve student achievement, motivation and participation in the science classroom. I do not see a category that would align with the topic of inquiry, critical thinking skills, etc.
Sounds like I am not alone - my project on building relationships between an instructional coach and teachers is no where to be found either - it's like we're in the Land of Misfit Toys! Where's Rudolph??? Ha! Ha!
For those of us that do not fall under the other categories, maybe we should network. I am a librarian and my research inquiry is "In what ways can I increase seventh and eighth grade library circulation?" If you have any suggestions, please visit my blog at lisagsimmons.blogspot.com
I had to change my topic. After the conference with the site supervisor, the topic was change to Does Using an Interactive Reading Program Improve Standardized Test Scores? This will be done with third graders but one topic on the blog wasnt available. I will check back again. I will have to update the blog.
Where do I find the links to the interest groups?
