Approaches to Educational Research
Instructors: B. Gleason, L. Wolf
When looking at the required courses, this was by far, the
least appealing. I was pleasantly surprised, however, to
find that not only did I end up enjoying this course, but
that I also learned quite a bit. While teachers do not typically use educational research, it is a valuable tool that I
have been using since taking the course. In the course, I
created a Research Action Project focused on the Accelerated Reader Program. I have used this research, and
the research techniques, through my recommendations
and suggestions about technology integration in our
school. I am able to make my case for or against certain
tools based on facts and research, which makes the
choices more sound and reasonable.
