I do feel I am working with a greater degree of autonomy this year but I am hoping this will not be to the detriment of my submissions.
Data collection has been a major headache and has not gone according to plan, but then that is the nature and the beauty of a flexible research design like Action Inquiry. It is a story that unfolds through events and often uncovers surprises at every turn. Repeating a process of reflection and evaluation on the pilot data process used has illustrated the importance of having a plan B, C and D to draw upon ! I need to cater for all kinds of eventualities during the major project in September.
The transcribing process has taken me a lot longer than envisaged and as a result feel I may have a lot of valuable data that hasn't been uncovered due to time constraints.
The pilot data collection has been an extremely worthwhile exercise, if only serving to indicate the impact and impression I make in the classroom according to those observing me.
Motivation has dwindled of late since husband's hopsitalisation but I'm pleased to say it is gradually returning now...
