Action Research is a hands-on approach that allows educators
to find solutions for any situation. Action
Research allows principals to ask questions and look for the best possible solution
to fit the needs of the school. The
first step is collecting data in order to analyze the problem. The second step is to determine a solution,
and the third step is to evaluate the solution.
Those doing the research are familiar with the school and have hands on
experience analyzing the problem. Together
with the administration, the team can form the best way to create an action
plan. Action research allows all parties
which include the principal, administration and all stakeholders to encourage
one another to work collectively with researchers to make sure the best
solution is implemented. By working
together with one another you are more invested in implementing a solution for
success. Action research can be used in
many ways; some of those ways are listed below:
∞
Analyzing how staff development impacts student
learning
∞
Evaluating student success on state assessments
and making changes were needed
∞
Examining culture differences and the impact it
has on learning
∞
Evaluating student learning styles and meeting needs
for student success
Importance of Blogging
Blogging allows administrators to share their thoughts and
opinions. It’s a way to learn and expand
your own educational knowledge and skills.
Blogging can be a way to collaborate with others and receive advice.
I like your blog layout, very smooth, simple, and to the point. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI like what you said about working together and being more invested for success. Very similar to what I said. Creating the plan creates a drive for its success. Being told this is what you are going to do...you complete the plan with less than 100% effort and don't care about the results. Great job...love the green!
ReplyDeleteYou're so right, Sarah. Collaboration is key. With all of the great minds working together in a school house, we can be so much more effective if we work together on the problems that we encounter. The more we talk about the issues, the further we will be able to go in resolving them.
