All About Reserach

First, I would like to say that its being a pleasure working with my colleagues for EDUC 6163. I wish you all nothing but the best and continue strive for greatness. Now I will answer my last questions for this class below.

• What insights have you gained about research from taking this course? I’ve gained a lot and one insight that I have for sure gained is that research cannot be done overnight. You have to take you time, be prepared and stay focus in order to properly conduct research about a specific topic.

• In what ways have your ideas about the nature of doing research changed? My ideas and feelings towards research have defiantly changed. At the beginning of the course, I thought I wasn’t going to make to the end but I’ve proven myself wrong because we are summing this course up. The reason my feelings changed towards research is because I was over thinking my research and making it very difficult and hard but in reality it wasn’t hard at all just took time and effort.

• What lessons about planning, designing, and conducting research in early childhood did you learn? I learned that you have to plan ahead so that when conducting your research you won’t be all over the place trying to get it done.

• What were some of the challenges you encountered—and in what ways did you meet them? My topic was a challenge at first but I was able to sum my topic up and get to the point I was trying to get to with the help of my professor. It was mostly the wording of my topic.

• What are some of the ways your perceptions of an early childhood professional have been modified as a result of this course? I can now complete many steps of the research process such as writing a topic, creating a hypothesis, being able to determine different research terms and being on task while conducting this research.

It’s been a Pleasure… J
