Action Research Week 4

Week four has been helpful in reviewing the comments of my classmates in regards to my action research.  My action research project addresses both the school community and culture in relation to the long and rich tradition and history of our school, one of the oldest educational institutions in south Texas founded in 1867.  In the discussion board I shared my frustration with determining a way to best evaluate and measure both the students' and the staff's experience.  A couple of surveys at the beginning and the end of the school year was about the best approach that I could come up with.  Most of the comments were encouraging but did not offer any additional suggestions of how to "beef up" my approach.  The encouragement was helpful, however.
