    Focus on research

    Chris Reading focusses on the research questions and talks about some administrivia:

    • All forms needed by Chris (first blank out students' names who haven't provided permissions forms)
    • Martin will collect all permissions forms for Chris from TAS - we need to provide a copy to parents afterwards

    Forms issues

    DId we need all five levels?

    • pre-service used more than in service teachers?
    • "mostly" good enough for the endpoint? ie would 4 levels discriminate enough or does "always" mean every time you looked at the student?

    Teacher forms

    • did the choice of three descriptors work?
    • positive attitude to tasks, teacher and peers should be broken out: could have positive attitude to 1 of the three or two, or. Generally interpreted as "positive" overall

    Pre-service forms

    • straight foward

    More general discussions re instruments

    • "felt like abandoning the kids to fill out the forms"
    • pre-service teachers did assist in management to allow this time, but it's still a time issue. May need separate "writers" or a round robin approach. Would change nature of data sheets though. Maybe "target" kids who may be at one end of the spectrum to see what is happening there.
    • Doubles worked well, but 45 minute classes made data collection impossible.
    • Would video recording the classroom work? Effectively doubles time allocation.
    • The fact that there were more people in the room than normal was disruptive. Dynamics may change depending on whether pre-service teachers were seen as dominant if, say, the inservice teacher went to the back of the classroom.

    Student form

    • Student reaction overall was positive.
    • Accuracy questionable, but time will make this less of a problem
    • Language not seen as problematic
    • Maybe some anonymous for some of the sets, these forms used to see if there was any correlation to named forms
    • Maybe numbered kids, given that we have 1:1 laptops, and use survey monkey or similar

    Followup

      Maybe a question that is fairly easily answered along the lines of "what was it that you enjoyed most about your activity?
      Linley and Chris will follow this up
