Week 4: AR Plan Progress and Changes

I was pleased to read about strategies that support and sustain action research. I have actually participated in each of these in the past. It was funny to read about Force Field Analysis, the Delphi Method, and the Nominal Group Technique then realize that I had done each of these!

My action research plan has not been altered too much to this point. The basic changes are in trying to formulate the tools with which I will use to measure parental involvement (the creation of survey, a letter home to parents to try to update contact information and create an email list of every student's parent or guardian, and the gathering of student data like behavior reports and TAKS test results).

I really hope that this research can be a successful tool for all teachers to use and alter for themselves to improve parental involvement at their respective schools.
