This is a very beneficial and practical plan to undertake. I like the fact that you are interviewing teachers and having them involved in the implementation of your plan. As opposed to just doing this in your class(es) incorporating other teachers lets you get multiple points of view on what is working and what is not working for various teachers. I also like the fact that you are implementing the plan, and seeing how it works for the first semester, then making adjustments (if needed) and evaluating for the second semester. I think this is a topic most teachers deal with and several people in the class will be interested in your homework plan and the results.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great ARP, to find out what homework is relevant to the students learning. Being able to make the changes in the 2nd semester is great and working with a variety of teachers input from different subjects should make for interesting research.
