I completed my Action Research project at the beginning of
this school year. My Action Research
project was developed based on early childhood education data at my
school. I developed a plan to implement
literacy nights and reading buddies at my school to increase literacy scores in
grades K and 1. I compiled the data from
these programs and interventions and shared the data with staff members at my
school. This was very effective and we
were excited about the results. We hope
to continue these programs throughout the school year this year and continue in
the years to come.
I have also completed the internship hours and
reflections. My site based supervisor is
looking over the reflections and will be completing the necessary paperwork to
be turned in by next week.
At the beginning of this course, we were asked to complete a
technology survey that addressed technology items that we were comfortable with
and those that we would like to learn more about. There were many items on the survey that I
was extremely comfortable with. However,
I stated that I wanted more practice with Web 2.0 tools. I learned a lot about the Web 2.0 tools
throughout this course and feel very comfortable implementing them into my
classroom. I loved the assignment that
required us to research 3 Web 2.0 tools and share them on the Google Doc with
our group. This allowed us to learn
about many different Web 2.0 tools. I
have actually already started using 1 of them on my classroom. I really enjoyed this course and I think it
opened my eyes to even more technology items that I can implement within my
classroom and school.
