AR Project Summary


When I first started planning my Action Research I knew I would have to be flexible because it was going to be a program that all staff and students were going to be involved in. The program started off very strong because of all the support that I had from the principal and staff. My goal was not to make extra work for any teacher but to give them an opportunity to really work and connect with students to prepare them for after high school. The program is still going well but I have learned that some lessons were hit and miss when it came to students and teachers enjoying them. Some weeks I felt rushed with the lessons and unfortunately didn’t always get the help I thought I would.
 
In talking with students it became very beneficial because they have given me an insight of what they enjoyed and what they want to learn. Student input is very important to me because of what my goal is for the program. With only a few Project LEAD lessons left for the school year I need and want to finish strong. I want these lessons to be very interactive with students and teachers. I will have students and teachers complete a survey of the overall program and include likes and dislikes. I am also planning to present the findings of the program to the faculty at a faculty meeting as well as present the findings at a CEIC (Campus Education Improvement Council) meeting. Even though it has been a very tough project it is something that I am glad that I did because I feel that it is very important.
