Research Methods: Implications for Practice

From LiteracyTentWiki

For the most part, implications and questions are presented as originally written by participants at the Meeting of Minds Symposium. This means that some items might be fragments of thoughts and therefore hard to understand. If you were a participant and see such a response, please feel free to edit the implication to reflect what you or your table was thinking.

To comment on the implications, use the edit function of the wiki. To add a new implication, use a single *. To add a comment to an implication, use **. Using this notation creates the following structure:

• Be aware of developmental leads of learners if this thing is valid
• For needs assessment, need to take these issues into account
• Teachers need to find out what level of development they are at before assessing their students
• Teachers can directly tell their students what developmental lever they are at and how they react and students need to self-identify, can ask student in a class
