2. Is each student different or can you use methods across the board? 
3. Are my methods that I use in my classroom appropriate for my students or should I be doing something else? ]]> 2016-07-17 02:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/bradfoni/4nodrxps5ts5/wish/116503557 bradfoni https://padlet.com/bradfoni/4nodrxps5ts5/wish/116503615 1. I would like to observe and document students with ADD and ADHD for how they respond to strategies to determine effectiveness. I will also compare it to students who are not using the strategies.  
2. Interviewing teachers and students on effectiveness of implemented strategies. ]]> 2016-07-17 02:16:35 UTC https://padlet.com/bradfoni/4nodrxps5ts5/wish/116503615 bradfoni https://padlet.com/bradfoni/4nodrxps5ts5/wish/116503675 -

1. "It is important to examine the various factors that may be affecting students’ learning outside of the classroom, which are changes to our research that action researchers cannot control" (p. 5.)   

2. "Action research is intimate because there is little distance between teacher researchers and their subjects" (p. 29)

Sagor, R. (1992).  How to conduct collaborative action research.  Alexandria, VA:  ASCD.

1. “Action researchers undertake a study because they want to know whether they can do something in a better way” (pg. 7).

2. "Teachers who take time to reflect on and define their problem are more likely to pursue questions yielding meaningful results" (p. 12).

3.  "Teacher-researchers have strong commitments to their students that will always push them to act rather than wait for more data." (p. 16)
