This is my basic check list for week 3, if I am missing something, help me out, so I can get it too!
-Video / Readings: I am going to tell you, for me personally, they all said the same thing, and it was the " 8 steps from form to analysis" that are also in the assignment template. You will need this layout for part 3 of the homework, and there is also a list on the resource page, I'll link to later in this list.
-Week 3 Assignment- download the document for editing, always save with your name in the title before editing!
*Part 1- super easy and short, just write a descriptive question about why you formulated this idea, so for example if my project were about parent communication, my question would be more detailed but look something like: "how can we better communicate with parents about upcoming school events?"
*Part 2- Go to your resource section of the course on black board and scroll down to where it says:
use either one of these templates you choose, personally felt like the first one was a little easier to fill in, but I liked the layout of the second one as well. Paste that in part 2 and then fill in each category, I suggest like 8 different actions at least!
*Part 3- copy the 8 numbered steps from above, paste into the part 3 workspace and then fill in the answers. The "cell phone example" is in the resource section:
*Part 4- write a description of how you will share the progress and process of your action research project, as well as discussing ways to disseminate your action research project findings and recommendations. Be sure to include information on the four critical tasks you must include in effectively sharing your action research project.
You will need to skim the reading for this part but the link in the resource section is listed:
- Leading with Passion and Knowledge - Dana Textbook Chapter 5
- Leading with Passion and Knowledge - Dana Textbook Chapter 6
-TK20- post your draft research plan
-Discussion Board Post and respond to 2 people (I always try to do this all at once!)
[I start by copying the prompt and paste it into my response box so I know I answer the prompt completely. This weeks discussion is more about your target group, how you are going to collect data about your research, the "who and how" basically.]
-Don't forget to write Weekly Blog this week and respond to 2 others summarizing what you have been doing outside of the formal operations, any other research conducted, basic discoveries, ect.
^this week must include your Action Plan template from Part 2, pasted in a blog.
also make sure to open blog for following if you're not already (step by step directions in italics in the weekly overview, I think around the middle of page 4) and if you are an overachiever, start going through the blog list posted and follow as many people as you can under resources:
-I know I'm probably forgetting something or other, so if you have anything to add, please feel free!
