- This procedure is used to analyze the students' points of view and teachers must trust the veracity of the information provided by the students, which results in a disadvantage since they can answer the surveys or forms incorrectly

- These surveys or questionnaires do not allow evaluating the impact of the writing approach to learning on students and focus on specific aspects.

- The survey or questionnaire mainly seeks to know the impact generated on the students and the level of satisfaction, but a disadvantage is that almost no information is provided on the points of view or suggestions of the students that will serve as inputs to apply new strategies of teachings

# data[].attributes.body
- This procedure allows to collect information directly from the students to better understand the methodology of the implemented writing approach

- This procedure can be adapted to different cases depending on the specific aspects of each situation, since the surveys and questionnaires are adapted according to the requirements

- This procedure is easy to apply and is performed in a very short time, as it can take around an hour

- Surveys and questionnaires allow to collect any type of information such as the level of satisfaction of the students towards the approach, the time allocated by the students in the extra-class hours or the changes suggested by the students to improve the methodology of the writing approach used

- The teacher selects the questions and the structure of the survey or questionnaire according to the specific topics

I think that the procedure that is best associated with the case in context is e. "surveys and questionnaires", which allow to gather information on the affective dimensions of teaching and learning, such as beliefs, attitudes, motivation and preferences, and allow a master to collect a large amount of information relatively quickly. In this case, it can be seen that the teacher implemented a new writing approach to learning.

These surveys and questionnaires allow teachers to know different aspects related to the implementation and impact of this approach, for example: the intensity of extra-class hours dedicated by students, level of motivation regarding this approach or the adjustments they would like perform.

In conclusion, this procedure turns out to be a great option for the proposed case because it allows analyzing the context of the new approach to writing implemented and the level of satisfaction and acceptance by the students.

e. You have been experimenting with a process approach for teaching writing (i.e., one in which you encourage students to go through a number of stages when completing a writing task, from planning to drafting to reviewing and revising). You want to find out if students actually find this approach useful and whether they use it on writing assignments outside of class.

In many language programs, teachers are often reluctant to take part in observation or related activities since observation is associated with evaluation

# data[].attributes.body
·          observation is suggested as a way of gathering information about teaching, rather than a way of evaluating teaching. The observing teacher learns from his partner's teaching and if he sees any flaws, he can help him teach the class by showing error and how to correct it.

·         Express and receive comments on teaching methods.

·         Recognize your own teaching styles.

·         Reflect on the practice of oneself in an environment of reciprocity.

·         Study and observe with other colleagues who not only know each other, but share the same problem.

Observation

Observation involves visiting a class to observe different aspects of teaching. The fact of observing a class as a process has the intention and the commitment to look without prejudice at a reality, not to judge it, but to understand it and establish solution options based on exchange, modeling, experience and analysis.

There are two kinds of observation will be referred to - observation by student teachers of a cooperating teacher's class, and peer observation, in which one teacher observes a colleague's class.

This case “You are very conscientious about planning your lessons, but somehow they never seem to go according to plan. You rarely have time to get through all the material that you had planned. You want to find out why this is happening.” will be a perfect procedure for action research because we have a main problem but we can also follow the phases that Richards, J. C., & Lockhart, C. (1994) pointed in the text:

Planning: Selecting the main issues or obstacles about your lesson

Observation: With the help from a colleague he/she can analyzes your strengths and weakness and decides what changes might be necessary.

Action: The possible procedures to improve it (gathering better materials, change the methodology) create an action plan

Reflection: With the feedback from observation and actions we can analyzes the possible effects of the action plan and the impacts.

ADVANTAGE and DISADVANTAGE:

If the teacher has realistic objectives and schedule for each activity, the lesson report will be an excellent supporting resource because with that the teacher will not forget the main aspects of the lesson and be more organize and the key for having a good feedback for the observation is to have an excellent relationship with the colleague so he/she can be honest with you. Also, for the two procedure we have to take into account to have time to create a good lesson report but also to ask the availability of the other teacher.

Richards, J. C., & Lockhart, C. (1994) exposed “The purpose of a lesson report is to give the teacher a quick and simple procedure for regularly monitoring what happened during a lesson, how much time was spent on different parts of a lesson, and how effective the lesson was” so before a teacher start a class, we must create a lesson report with taking into account the general and specifics aspects of the lesson (sources, resources, procedures to use) and the learning processes of the students, if after that the teacher still feeling that the plan fail, we can discuss the possible issues with a colleague and even we can ask the colleague to do an observation during my lesson, so at the end we could get a feedback from another perspective about the teaching strategies and materials used in class.

My procedure selected would be suitable in the issues question 1 for action research, first understand that is “necessary to collect information on what the current characteristics of one’s teaching are or what is happening in the classroom in relation to the issue in question” (Richards, J., & Farrell, T, 2005, p.179), considering that the easiest way to collect information is thought surveys and questionnaires where I can determine the best way of learning for each one of my students.

# data[].attributes.body
Disadvantages

-	It requires a thorough preparation of materials and dynamics.

-	All types of learning must be applied, in order to promote the participation of all students ( it requires most time and a good secuence).

-	Individual teaching, Time and special material are required.

# data[].attributes.body
Advantages

-	Through the survey can identify the best way to learn from my students.

-	Identify each student's learning style and thought it improve my teaching. 

-	Identify the topic to be investigated through surveys, through the same information given by the students.

-	Appropriate use of teaching materials with regard to learning style.

-	I can determine the easiest way the issues in question 1.

I consider to the procedure appropriate for gathering information about the  situation select is surveys and questionnaires because thought it the teacher can investigate students´attitud toward group work, considering that the teacher works with many students about a topic, the teacher must consider into class all types of learning (visual, kinesthetic and auditory), the teacher must know each of your students with respect to the types of learning, the teacher can do it  thought surveys and questionnaires where stablished a serie of questions as do you like to learn by pictures, films and videos? Do you like to learn english is a small or big group? What topics are interesting? etc, with the answers recived the teacher can determine why the attitud students and improve in the methods and skills of the learning using new didactics materials.  “Surveys and questionnaires are useful ways of gathering information about affective dimensions of teaching and learning, such as beliefs, attitudes, motivation, and preferences, and enable a teacher to collect a large amount of information relatively quickly” (Richards, J. C., & Lockhart, C,1994. P.10).

You are concerned about one of your students who always avoids sitting near the front of the class. This student seems to be paying attention, but rarely participates actively in lessons. You are not sure why. Since you have a large class, it is difficult for you to monitor individual students. You want to find out what this student's attitude is toward the class.
