Quote of the week
"I have learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear."~Nelson Mandela

5301 week 2 reflection
This week, I learned more about action research and what all it can cover for an administrator. I still go back to say it is important to teachers to use this concept as well in more purposeful, meaningful ways. I know I will take this idea back to my PLC for areas we want to improve on and look at the facts and data to support what we do. The key thing I took away from this is that isn't about the numbers. You need to look more qualitative and into individual students.

Did the child pass the state test? Did they meet the target on their progress monitoring? The numbers are so often the only thing that some educators look at when making decisions about how to best meet the needs of students. It was nice to hear others talk about looking past the testing numbers to what is going on with the child in all aspects to get a clear picture.
