You have developed a very comprehensive plan that follows a systematic collection of data. When your plan is complete, you will have a great amount of data with all of the surveys and interviews you are conducting. Great Job!!
ReplyDeleteI really like that you walked us step by step through your plan. I think that finding effective motivation is one of the largest keys to success in our schools. Students today lack self motivation and are therefore falling behind where they should be. I believe we either need to teach them to be self motivated or find other ways to motivate them. I am very interested to see how your plan turns out, so keep us posted! Great job!
ReplyDeletePlan looks good, the organization makes it easy to see the transition from one activity to the next. Good Job.
ReplyDeleteGreat topic. I strongly believe that Motivation is the key on both sides of the spectrum. Students need motivation to learn what is needed to learn and teachers need motivation to teach the best and most effective techniques in our classroom. You have set up a good deal of data collection and I wish you all the luck in the end.
ReplyDeleteYour plan looks very well thought out and set up to be a great project. I love the topic, Motivation is a key to student success. Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteYour plan looks great.Very specific and detailed. I took note and plan to revise mine. Thanks for the tips.
ReplyDeleteYour plan is very detailed. It is amazing what students can accomplish when they are motivated! Good luck on your project! I like the hoops theme on your blog!
ReplyDeleteAs I was recently given a Teen Leadership class, after 6 years of asking for it, I am using the motivation techniques picked up in the 5311 class to add to the curriculum already. Then I have taken the effective ideas and implemented them into my World History class as well. I agree, motivation is the key...
DeleteThis is a well though out plan. With testing coming up, how will you get the administrators to cooperate and find time to assist you?
ReplyDeleteThat is a great question. The process to date has been pushed to quick meetings with my site supervisor. She is very thorough, and I can sense her frustration with the many questions that I have for her. I can see her beginning to trust my ideas more and more as I send her updates. It does feel that I am trying harder to make them feel better than putting together a great reserch topic. If it comes to it, I will stay as late as possible to get the help that I need to complete the research...
