As week 2 comes to a close and I take a look back on the subject matter presented this week, I can definately say that as an individual who is not a classroom teacher and is not located on a campus at all, it was a huge learning experience on how action research is such an integral piece of the education sector. I am a recent undergrad student and now an employee of an Education Service Center, which makes me painfully unfamiliar with the innerworkings of districts and the topics that arise from being in the classroom with students on a daily basis, of which would have provided me with a body of knowledge for conjuring up examples of the 9 different types of action research in the assignment. Needless to say, I enjoyed reading my classmates' action research topics and am looking forward to solidifying my own applicable action research topic coming up this next week!
Until next time...

Educational Leaders Use of Blogs for Action Research
Blogs are a wonderful tool for use as they serve as an interactive, collaborative venue to collect, update and post information relating to action research. Educational leaders can share with other leaders and gain new insight from others through the ability of others to leave comments on items within their blog and due to the fact that others can subscribe as "followers" to as many blogs as they choose. Visitors to the blog can view the chronological entries (similar to a journal or diary) to the Weblog and see pictures, links, text and graphics which reach beyond simply logging your search in pen and paper.
