Action Research Reflection Update 3/31/13



Action Research Reflection 3/31/13
At this point and time, I am working on the finishing up of the project.  One of the classes that I have placed devices in is done with their part of the project.  The other class has come to depend on the devices, and I found that interesting.  The students and the teachers in the lower level special education class want to make sure that they will continue to have use of the devices for the remainder of the school year.  I was going to stop my research project by the end of March, but the teacher of the lowest special education class has asked me to continue until mid May.  She has even been able to use the devices to help with the students with Math, History, Science, Art, Music and many other subjects.  She has come to rely on the devices to teach her students the different subjects. 
I have done a bunch of research planning and finding the appropriate applications that can be with the students in these classes.   Also, I had to find the applications that were at each of the student’s levels after speaking with the teacher, the paraprofessionals and working with the students to know what level was best for them as well as their interest.  At this time I have spent 254 hours working toward the completion of my research project.   I feel that I have several more hours to go, but it is coming to an end.
