Week 2 reflection

I really enjoyed watching the videos of three educators speaking on action research. They gave great advice and helped me understand the importance of research. Some advice that I remember is to make the research practical, it will help it be more interesting, you will be more focused, and it will benefit the students more. Dr. Chargois said that "better teachers never stop learning." Leaders cannot just teach people to teach anymore, they must teach them to research to break apart data. And then Dr. Briseno gave good advice regarding do not ever shove issues under te carpet so to speak, take care of them up front, be active in researching ways to solve issues.
I also enjoyed reading the discussion board this week. I actually changed one of my research topics after reading a students post and becoming aware of an issue that I had forgotten but always had. Great job guys!
