This week I learned about some of the areas that are frequently identified by many school leaders as needing further research. Some of those areas are staff development, curriculum development, individual teachers, individual students, school culture/community, leadership, management, school performance, and social justice or equity issues. Each area is like an umbrella with many different topics that can be important for action research. Some examples of the wonderings I had were:
How can the elementary school principal best facilitate teacher professional development that promotes the professional growth in both veteran teachers and first year teachers?
How can the staff at my campus integrate technology across the curriculum?
What kinds of support can a principal provide for new teachers to succeed and remain in the teaching career?
These were only a few examples of the many wonderings I had when learning about the various areas of action research.
