Nueva versión de Task 2: Planning an action research_Group 4 by laura veronica medina prado https://padlet.com/lauramedina0221/qwv75tise855pt4v Action research en-us 2020-04-19 01:16:04 UTC 2020-04-29 02:01:42 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4a1.png Task 2. Classroom situation by Laura Medina lauramedina0221 https://padlet.com/lauramedina0221/qwv75tise855pt4v/wish/514839425 I consider that the best method to collect information in an investigation is the surveys and questionnaires because it can be the simplest, easiest way and give the interpretation of them, the way to do it is by administering the survey to the students, they are a useful tool gathering information about the affective dimensions of teaching and learning such as beliefs, attitudes, preferences, motivation, failures, or errors that allows the teacher to collect a lot of information quickly.
Advantages and disadvantages of the survey
Although the survey is one of the most used tools for any type of investigation and one of the most accurate, it also has its pros and cons, here are some
Advantage
-The more people answer the survey, the more likely the results will be more accurate.
-Low investment cost (photocopies)
-You can manage it in two ways: electronic or physical
-It is easier to find statistically significant results than other data collection methods.
-Higher precision in terms of measuring the data collected.
-Privacy of the person filling out the questionnaire
Disadvantages
-The respondents can give false answers and not really give what is expected of them.
-Each question is well explained and there is no possibility of misinterpretation.
-You cannot have confidential information.
2.. Which of the issues in question 1 would be suitable for action research?
I choose question a
a. He is concerned about his students' attitudes towards English and towards language learning. Try to promote positive attitudes towards learning English. You want to find out what your students' attitudes are and if they change over the course of a language course.
I consider that this question fits perfectly for my research topic and you can do a survey to know the results of the question.
TASK 3
A teacher has set out to teach numbers and colors. For this, he has planned his entire class with all the activities that the teacher will do with the students in the class. The teacher is concerned that students do not respond to activities and may have to come up with something instantly.
  If it is for the teacher's own interest, because he must first know the students and be very clear about the subject that he is going to teach his students.
  These kinds of situations are common for teachers and you may want to seek help at school to suggest teaching materials such as books and more.
If I consider it to be a topic that can be published to help other teachers who have the same problem or to help myself to perfect my strategy.

Classroom situation by Celia Rojas lauramedina0221 https://padlet.com/lauramedina0221/qwv75tise855pt4v/wish/526997384 I choose lesson reports to because it allows describing the characteristics and memories of the injury, in addition, has the purpose 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.
lesson reports´s advantages and disadvantages
Advantages
. It gives the teacher a quick and simple procedure for
regularly monitor what happened during a lesson.
. Allows the teacher to identify how long
spent on the different parts of a lesson and how effective the lesson was.
It often serves as a useful record of many
important features of the lesson and therefore can be used to help monitor teacher instruction.
Disadvantages
It is not a completely accurate description of what happened during a lesson.
Task 2. Situation in the classroom
I chose the following situation to answer the questions:
b. You are very aware of planning your lessons, but somehow they never seem to go according to plan. He rarely has time to review all the material he had planned. You want to know why this happens.
Which of the issues in question 1 would be suitable for action research?
The most appropriate procedure is to take action is a report lesson.
Task 3. Individual proposal
Introduction paragraph
Is it for the teacher’s own interest?
Regarding teaching, the concern that teachers have when transmitting knowledge, teachers ask themselves questions such as whether the student is improving or if the teaching method is appropriate due to the fact that the lesson can be used to help identify and resolve these teacher concerns. 
Would you like to present at a seminar or write in a newsletter?
If I would like to write a newsletter about the concern of teachers in teaching English and how to help the student adequately acquire English learning.

Classroom situation by Roger Stevens lauramedina0221 https://padlet.com/lauramedina0221/qwv75tise855pt4v/wish/537919248 Observation highlights being or visiting a class to observe different aspects of Observation seeks to collect information about teaching, rather than evaluating what teaching. In different classes, some teachers hearing that they should participate in observation or related activities; they feel judged since they believe that observation is associated with evaluation. Likewise, it is necessary that the observation is not reflected as a negative experience and is seen as something positive and feedback.
Advantage
It allows to observe the generality of the class-
-The attitude of the teacher and students towards the management and proposal of the class.
-Identify the teaching method. And if the students accept it.
-You identify if the students respond positively to the proposed activities.
-You observe if the teacher promotes class participation.
-If you design a variety of activities.
-It is identified if the students are motivated.
-Identify if there is a connection between the students and the teacher.
 Disadvantages
Much observation time is required to make value judgments about the class
-Observation is made on a general level, not on an individual or personal level. unless the student stands out for his abilities.
-Teachers feel judged by their teaching method.
-The observer can be seen as an intruder.
-The observer can be a distraction For students.
-Value judgments resulting from observation can be permeated by the experiences of the observed.
 Case C
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.
The best way to determine what happens to this student is through observation. Observe the student's behavior, what he says, what he does, and how he develops the activities. What activities does he do best? in order to collect this information, organize it and obtain results to determine what happens to the student.
Task 3. Individual proposal
One of the oldest concerns in the history of education in general is the participation of students in the classroom. Participation in class can allow a teacher to make some judgments of value such as that they are not interested in the proposed activity, they know or not about the topic, they are understanding it, they know how to work in a team or they prefer to do it individually. Even by being a good observer, you can determine what kinds of learning styles exist in the classroom and vary activities.

Classromm situation by Edwin Mauricio Bermudez lauramedina0221 https://padlet.com/lauramedina0221/qwv75tise855pt4v/wish/537926831 From my point of view, the most appropriate procedure to collect information in an investigation is "audio and video recording". Although it is not a very simple method like the others, it allows you to obtain more objective information than the other methods allow, because the lesson is recorded as it was, with many details, such as the actual language used by the teacher and the students while with other methods only subjective impressions of the teaching are obtained, that is, that only some memories or personal interpretations of the class can be obtained and not the class itself as such.
- What are the advantages and disadvantages of the procedure you selected?
Advantage:
- A more complete description of the lesson is obtained.
- It allows to record much of what is really happening in class.
- It allows to choose the focus to record, teachers, students, part of the staff or all the staff.
- the same lesson can be reproduced and observed many times with many details.
- helps the development of the teacher's self-reflective competence.
- captures an objective view of the class.
- provide valuable information on the growth of the teacher's experience.
Disadvantages:
- may have limitations on which part of the staff wants to focus and record.
- Reviewing the recordings takes a long time.
- It takes a long time to configure the recording devices and to carry out the respective test runs.
- It is recommended to use only on some occasions or on special occasions.
2. Which of the issues in question 1 would be suitable for action research?
Poitn D:
D. You have been teaching English to elementary students for several years, and colleagues point out that you have developed a special kind of "teacher's English." You want to investigate whether this is true, what these features are, and whether it helps or hinders your teaching.
Although he already has several years of experience teaching English. This has only been for primary school children. However, the other teachers say that a special kind of " teacher's English" has been developed. In order to know if this is true, it is necessary to make a detailed recording of the classes given to primary school students and bear in mind that these They are children who cannot be required to have a very high level of English as if they were studying to be teachers because this would hinder their learning.
Task 3. Individual proposal
A topic that is of great importance for a teacher and that normally raises doubts is that his students are understanding everything that is explained to them or it is very accelerated or on the contrary it is very slow and this bores the students . In order to know if their way of explaining the topics is adequate and their students agree with the teaching methods and times, several video recordings can be made showing the way of explaining and the assertive participation of the students.
