My Personal Research Journey


The topic I chose to analyze for this stimulation research is should the same person test students every time they are being tested in Kindergarten. This stands out to me because at my school we get support when it is testing time and some of our strategist help us out. I want to know if the same person should test every time, should it be the classroom teacher, are the tests more valid when it is just one person? I want to know what is best for my kids. Do they feel comfortable when someone besides their teacher is testing them. We are testing more and more in class and I want to know the best way to do it. 

I am still really nervous about doing research, but with the tools that this class has provided and with the support of my colleagues in class, I know that I will get through the research just fine. I know that i have never done big research projects and I don’t know how much help I will be to others, but I am a great listener, and I will be on the look out for information that will help my classmates. If anyone has any information for me that would be greatly appreciated.

  1. I really enjoyed your topic of interest. I think that it is a good topic; however, I wonder how much research has been done on it. I just fear that the information that you may find on this may be low.
