After meeting with my site mentors, we discoverd that my plan was too broad, and that another project I wanted to tackle on my campus would help make my research plan more specific. That being said I am overjoyed to be killing two birds with one stone. I just hope I get my principal's approval to do what I need to do (princiapl is not my site mentor).

Listening to the 3 guest speaker's interviews confirmed my previous beliefs about action research:
1. The research must lead to a practical solution for a campus, working in theory is not OK.
2. Overall student success if the main goal of ANY action research project.
3. Teachers should never stop learning. Whether they are privy to the bemefit of action research or not, they should be on a constant quest to improve their teaching.
These are my original, yet brief, thoughts
