Measurable?

Through the latest week I've began to wonder... Is my project measurable? I think I'm scaring myself off more than anything so I am going to continue to proceed. Plus it's what is happening right now. With us moving toward the STAAR test Rigor is something that we absolutely have to amp up. Our students have to be able to solve multiple step objective problems. So my concern is something that I am going to overlook. Throughout meeting with my principal and the math specialist they have insisted that I push forwrd. This does ease my concerns some.

  1. There could be a possibility of reducing the amount of steps in the action steps. To see a picture, yes you have to look at the whole picture but is there a need to examine every detail to understand it’s a forest? Yes examining the gathered samples is a great idea however is there a need to track students in great detail. Would a concise piece of data help with the continuous examine of the data. Could their class work be a sample to get real time data as a good piece of information for your action research topic?

    Is throughout the summer, a reverse slip and slide effect would address an array of problems with where work but would that be up to the parent and not the educator. Maybe the objectives can be identified as where the finish line is for you and where should it continue at home?

    We all want successful students but the success has to come from within the student.
