Sharing the Process

Sharing the Progress and Process of My Action Research:

When we share our action research projects we can affect how people outside of education view educators. We can also influence other teachers to go through inquiry themselves. We can share orally in meetings or gatherings, or in a more formal gathering with a simple and easy to follow PowerPoint presentation. Another excellent way to share our inquiry is by writing articles that include clarification of topic, an empowerment position, what other inquiries were generated once project was implemented and what was accomplished by the action research. The Dana text in its chapter named The Travelogue embraces blogging as a rich way of disseminating information in action research.

Blogging is probably the fastest, most current way of sharing inquiry today. Many educators create blogs and by doing so make it more accessible for all interested. I will share my own process orally with stakeholders at my school, through simple presentations, and through my own blog. I will start by providing information that brought me to my wonderings, how it has been a serious problem in my school for a long time. I will also share how I will go about my inquiry; the data collected and analyzed what I plan to learn from such data, as well as any other findings along the way. Once, the action research project ends I will also provide my followers with the answers or results attained through this process by means of concluding thoughts. Hopefully, my action research process will not only prove beneficial to my campus, but to others as the follow my progress.
