I love research because I’m an analytic person; some may say
a type A person who needs to know the function of matters. Research speaks
volumes to my heart! It really doesn’t matter about the population of groups
study but, whatever I’m researching, there will most likely be a twist.
The insight gain from the course are the vocabulary words
that I will never forget “qualitative
and quantitative” as my examples, the “understanding the research chart “
was my favorite assignment to do, “it didn’t mean that I always got it right,
BUT I could express my understanding of what I was try to learn . Now I have the understanding of a protocol,
the steps of planning, designing and conducting have guided me in how to think through, collect necessary
forms and proceed with caution, while working with children and families. The ethical rights of children, the inform
consent, the formal consent and the respect for others if the participants were
no longer interested. When I think of
challenges, I can’t say that I really met any; it was all about learning and growing
in knowledge.
Finally, because of my research simulation project of “Teacher
burnout in early childhood education” my perception and compassion of teacher responsibilities
has grown deeper. Early education in a child care center is HARD work,
especially if you claim to be a quality center. Therefore,
CHEERS to the best research class ever!!!!!! I have learned lot about myself
and others.
Valerie,
ReplyDeleteIt is evident in your wirting that you have learned a lot from this class. I love how you admit that you did not always get it right but you had the opportunity to express your understanding of the infromation. I felt the that I had dropped the ball multiple times during this eigth weeks yet Dr. Parrish"s responses only made you think about the information in a different way and provoke a response that would be appropriate to the assignment. I was wonderful communicating with you through discussion and the blogs. ck
I learned a lot from doing those research charts. I think they really helped us for this class. I also will never forget those vocabulary words. I feel as though we will become great researchers. This class was awesome. I wish you the best of luck at Walden!!!
ReplyDeleteValerie, I think the vocabulary stunted many of us when they were first introduced. The research charts also helped me because it helped me put it all in respective and it also helped with vocabulary. I really do appreciate all of your feed back in my blogs and in the discussion. Best of Luck in all you set out to do.
