Change of Heart
Well, I am back again after submitting my assignment for week 2 of EDLD 5301 Research. After completing the last assignment where we had to meet with our site supervisor I had to make a decision on my action research topic again. I am sad to report that my site supervisor has suffered a family loss and I was unable to meet with him, so I met with another supervisor that suggested that I stay true to my internship plan and focus on topics that directly affect the subject area I teach. I am an elementary physical education teacher as you know if you read my profile and I am involved with the Fitness Gram testing for all students. I believe fitness has a direct link to student achievement and will be changing my action research topic. My new study will be asking "How does our campus Fitness Gram scores compare to our campuses student achievement scores (TAKS) and its' impact on student achievement? I still want to work on parental involvement and its impact on student achievement and behavior. I feel all issues impact student achievement and this is one dear to my heart. I will keep you posted. Anyone listening?

Darlene - I'm listening. I'm sorry to hear about your site supervisor's loss. I'm also glad you are conducting action research on something you are passionate about. Our readings advised us to research on matters that are of interest to us.
