Feedback that was helpful to me was mostly considering the time management of the idea. Also, feedback like narrowing my research question and how I can narrow it (academics, stereotypes) was also helpful.

Struggles I am having in collecting my sources is due to how specific my research question is. Since my question is in Asian American Education and how their environment affects that, there is not much information on it so far. I also can't find a gap of knowledge. However, I used summarizing my search and using different platforms to find more sources that can help with my essay.

# data[].attributes.body
My research question has changed a lot since my first preliminary question. At the beginning, my question was "To what extent does listening to music while studying improve students ability to absorb information?" Since then, I have changed my research question to whether Asian Americans surroundings (racial comments or family) impact their education. The reason why I changed this is because I thought this topic would interest me more and I already previously looked into the topic.

# data[].attributes.body
The most helpful peer feedback on my current research question is to consider what classes Asian American students take (normal, honors, AP). This made me think about specific classes in which Asian Americans are able to succeed. Thoughts I had after this feedback activity was to overall consider the time I will have on this research essay and to narrow my question.

When learning about ethical research, i've learned to be VERY careful when considering ethics. Since I am collecting surveys, I need to make sure the people who are doing the surveys are safe. Ethical research practices are essential to make sure the people are able to feel comfortable and safe in what they are doing in the research. For example, I should make sure they are anonymous and I should make sure that they know about the surveying. I need to have an ethical matter as much as I can, and I should make sure I am as honest as possible with the people.

When making instructions to re-create legos, what made instructions good was the color of the block, the shape of the block, and the counting of the "stumps" of the Lego block. This relates to the replicability of my research project because when someone is reading your research, you need to make sure your instructions of methods are understandable and are able to be recreated so that others can do the same research.

The gap in the BOK is students who are in North Carolina ABSS. This is an actual gap in the bank of knowledge because all my sources are related to either a generalization of a place or another place that is not ABSS. This gap is important because it can provide future researchers information on how a specific place could affect students in that school system and how racial stereotypes can be more "severe" depending on the place.

More diverse group in Southeast Alamance than in other schools

Haven’t seen Asian Americans being held back because of racial stereotypes

Potential groups that I can ask in Southeast

Filling out consent forms is losing participants

Maybe look into college students

How do you think we can possibly spread the word about my research all around ABSS? (what types of data would be most effective for assessing stereotype impact in a school district like ABSS?)

The meeting overall talked about the issues of collecting information for my research (how consent forms can possibly lose participants and how to spread the message to other schools.

While reflecting on previous AP Seminar presentations, I had issues with being comprehensive with my information and with talking fast. One area of the rubric that I will need to work on in this course is reflection.

If something major changes as I begin my research/data collection, I would possibly try to shift and change the way I do my method. For example, if I don't get enough participants or consent forms, I would look for another way to find participants.

1. They establish the bank of knowledge in both the literature review and the introduction but they elaborate on what is currently known more in the literature review.

2. Towards the end of the introduction, they establish the Gap of Knowledge.

3. They did connect the gap to their research question.

Informed advisor about the method plan and my plan of research

Showed all the sources (Consent form, survey form, etc.)

Recommendation- Communicate with Mr. Yarborough

Worst possible scenarios- If we don't get any principals, etc.

After I chose my research question/project goal, information that guided my choice of research method/article process was my source. All of my sources were with surveys or interviews, it was just whether it was in person or online. I decided to do it online because I thought it was more efficient than trying to get students and interview them in person, which takes time for them and I.

# data[].attributes.body
The method/process I chose aligns with the purpose of my research because my research is rooted in students opinions. Since I chose surveys, I would be able to collect these opinions efficiently. Additionally, my sources also use surveys. I considered and rejected doing in-person interviews because it is difficult to pull students aside and it is less efficient.

Specific feedback from one of my peers (I only had one peer review) that I felt was beneficial for my research paper was transitions and wording. I plan to revise my literature review section by rephrasing sentences to make it more comprehensive and fix transition words.

If I had 3 extra months to work on this research question/project goal, additional research strategies that I would put into practice is maybe doing things in person by going to schools or continue to connect and email with the principals. Furthermore, I would also ask more questions in my survey.

1. Information that is the most important from the video is that you have to JUSTIFY a lot of your research, such as your research question, method, and results during this part of the research process. You need to clearly explain data analysis process and make sure it aligns to the research question.

2. I can apply this information into my research by JUSTIFYING and making sure my data aligns with my research, my methods/procedures, and my literature review.

3. What could help me determine significant results is if I clearly explained how data analysis process produced reported results which also supports generation of conclusions.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I can use the information that I learned about statistical analysis for my results by interpreting my data in a different way and by analyzing and uncovering patterns.

2. The most helpful information from the video is to make sure you state your information, both positive and negative. However, you shouldn't state ALL your information. Make sure you also briefly discuss your method before jumping into your evidence.

1. I am currently in the middle of my data collection process.

2. My goal date for completion is mid-February (the end of next week). I plan to get there by communicating with my expert advisors and other teachers to get my research across the school.

3. I haven't fully determined what visual representation yet. However, I am thinking pie charts or bar graphs to compare categories and display proportions.

# data[].attributes.body
Characteristics that made the results/finding section easy to understand are the visuals. In the high scoring papers, there is not as much writing as there are graphs. Seeing these visuals makes it easier to see the statistics. Furthermore, they are color coded which makes it easier to determine each part of the graph. I can use these examples to help me write my paper by adding more graphs than words. I will make sure that looking at it can immediately show the data that I am trying to portray to others by adding headlines and color coded charts.

These are how many participants I have so far.

# data[].attributes.body
One obstacle I encountered while performing research was the lack of participants. I was not able to collect many participants due to the lack of communication and high school students not having time to do the survey and the consent form. What I did to address this obstacle was to pivot and lessen my participants.

# data[].attributes.body
The fundamental idea of my research is Asian Americans and racial stereotypes in a certain district. This idea relates to the primary purpose of my research because the correlation between Asian Americans and racial stereotypes can determine whether that impacts how a student can perform in a classroom depending on other people's stereotypes.

# data[].attributes.body
An unanticipated turn I encountered as my research progressed was having to narrow the amount of schools and participants. The reason for this change was because of our time frame and I modified my approach by using less schools and less participants.

My conclusions/findings relate to the current body of work in the field because it deals with the effects of racial stereotypes on students depending on where a student lives. My findings relate to this because it shows how I didn't find much of a correlation through statistics. However, I found that many of the people I surveyed believe otherwise (that racial stereotypes do impact depending on where you live.)

# data[].attributes.body
The real-world implications that relate to my findings is the small amount of participants I have, showing the small results in comparison to if I did my whole district community.

The most helpful peer feedback on my academic paper was the confusing wording on some of my pages. I did not notice how some of my wording was confusing which can be confusing for my actual information. So, I plan to use it to revise my paper by looking at all the highlighted parts and fix the confusing wording.

One idea that I gained from reading a peer academic paper was how specific I need to be. I need to make sure I'm specific in my writing so I can make sure the reader fully understands.

I prepared for and created my presentation by looking at a bunch of example presentations. I used the structure of this presentation and the way they presented to practice.

# data[].attributes.body
Feedback that I received when practicing was mostly to be less wordy with explaining and trying to make things more concise. I used the feedback to help prepare my presentation by making my slides and what I say more concise.
