Time to Spread My Wings

I have definitely grown as researcher as a result of this course. I can remember not knowing much about researching when the class began. It seems like only three weeks ago, lol!

Theoretical Framework seemed like foreign words to me before this course, but I now have a better understanding of it's identity. The key components of research were Greek, but due to my blog partner, the class discussions, and scaffolding from the assignments, they have been translated.

Reading the various articles has given me insight on designing and conducting research. I've enjoyed the knowledge, instructional strategies, and exposure gathered from reading the articles.

I'll admit that while it was engaging, I'm glad this course is over because I have 3 more credits under my belt and my summer vacation can finally begin.

  1. It's so good to hear that you feel you have grown in your research knowledge and abilites. Even though this class was so fast I think it went really well! I also learned so much from the assignments. My only suggestion to you would be to stay on track with your research progress. One thing that has helped me was when I joined the IRA. With my membership I was able to pay a little extra for a subscription to The Reading Teacher. If literacy is your thing you may want to consider this! Good luck with the rest of your program. :)
