Month 6: DAE Blog

How is your AR project unfolding for you? When will you begin Cycle implementation in your environment?
So far my AR project is unfolding nicely - no major wrinkles yet, only a few minor ones that were ironed out quickly. I will be able to begin by implementation around the first week of February. I am a little behind on this. I was hoping to have it started already, but with a new group of students, I needed to go over beginning of class items and get them started with some other projects first. All of the students have completed the survey I created and I have that data compiled.
How are you planning to track your data?
I will be able to track lots of the data via Edmodo. I am using this classroom management tool to keep track of the student's blog postings. I am also entering the information into a Google spreadsheet so I can follow pre and post quizzes and keep track of who has which blog or assignment done.
What happened in your research that you didn't expect? Explain.
The only thing that has happened that I didn't expect was the delay in time. I received a new group of 200 students in January. I thought I would have the beginning of class housekeeping items completed. Not the case. I am still working at getting everyone up and running with using Edmodo.
How has this month’s course (so far) helping in shaping your ARP?
This month class has helped me think about the visual aspects of my assignments a little more. I want to incorporate more visual instructional material but haven't figured how yet. I am working with middle schoolers to increase their reading ability and asking them various questions about their reading, so I am not sure how I am going to add visual to this. Although I might be able to add more graphics and visuals to their WikiPages. Since they have not used the program I can add more visuals to help them learn it.
