7. What Did I Find and What Did I Learn?

# data[].attributes.body
1) What have been the main findings of your research so far?
Some of the main findings are in line with my expectations, such as:

According to my students, the use of technology in the classroom leads to-
a). Better understanding of the text
b). Makes the text more interesting
c). Easier and simpler
d). Increases concentration
e). Provides motivation
f). Remember easily

However, the following points, when highlighted by my students, seemed even new to me-
i).  Using technology makes me happy
ii). I learn things outside the  text
iii). Seeing things is better than reading about them
iv). Technology makes things come alive-the blackboard cannot do that

2) What have you learned as a teacher?
This action research project has taught me to look deeper into my classroom and my students and to understand that there are things which I may be missing out on. Questionnaires, student interviews and teacher reflections has shown me how to look for problems and solutions in the teaching-learning process.

3) What are you planning to do next?
-I am planning to continue with such action research projects and delve deeper into my classroom.

A). I wanted to know why my students' attitude changed whenever technology was used in class. Hence, I decided to explore the answer to the following main and sub questions:
"What do my students think/feel about use of technology in the classroom?"
-What influence does technology have on their interest levels?
-What role does technology in the classroom play with regard to motivation?
-How does technology influence their understanding of the text?

B). I gathered evidence by:
-Conducting individual student interviews.
-Preparation of questionnaire.
-Teacher's reflective notes---something that I always do---was also my data collection tool.

C). When did I start collecting data?:
-I started collecting data from the third week of the EVO and decided to conduct the research with my Grade X class.

D). Whose permission or consent do I need for my research?
-I took permission from the head of the institution and also from my students. I let the students know that although I may be conducting interviews, nowhere will their names be mentioned.

E) Who will be affected by the research?
-Both students and colleagues/teachers of the community will benefit from this research.

F) Who should be told about the research when it's completed?
-I intend to communicate my findings to my students, my colleagues as well as hold a discussion with other teachers of the community. I often organise workshops for teachers where I communicate what I have learnt or done recently as well as engage teachers from my city in discussions regarding the best practices they are applying in their classrooms.

G). How I analysed the data:
--Both qualitatively and quantitatively.
--From the questionnaire prepared I got quantitative and qualitative data.
--From the students' interviews I got qualitative data.
--From the teacher's reflective notes I got qualitative data.

I teach in a state-run school for under-priviledged students. I am always trying to find ways to motivate my students to learn the English language.

My classrooms are lacking in infrastructure, they do not have anything more than a blackboard. So, I take my laptop to class. I cannot bring the laptop every day to school as that is very inconvenient. Also, not all the classrooms have charging points. However, I feel my students attitude changes dramatically whenever I use the device to show them images or videos related to their text. Their interest levels just shoot up. I also prepare PowerPoint presentations to show my students in class. Sometimes, I do assessment with my laptop. In no other classes is any form of technology used in the school. The only major issue is that without a large screen to display the content, the students find it difficult to see the images, videos or questions on the small screen.

What I find interesting is that even though they have to crane their necks to see, all the students seem to enjoy the classes with technology very much.
