It is time to begin my action research!
My research is going to focus on my classroom culture. We have a school-wide behavior plan in place. Many teachers at our school have stated few observations that this plan has helped with student behavior and classroom management. I can say I have noticed a few changes but they are few and far between. I wondered if there could be a possible link to giving students specific feedback on their target/goal behaviors and improving our overall school culture. Improving our school culture after all is part of the intention related to our positive behavior supports. I am starting my researching on a small scale. I am going to be looking at how feedback can effect the culture of my classroom. Students will take a survey to begin and give me a baseline for their current perceptions. The questions are related to specific behaviors as well as overall feelings about our classroom environment. Through out the research I will look at target behaviors and provide students will specific feedback. I am hoping this feedback will increase these positive behaviors and therefore improve our overall classroom culture.
I am excited to get started and see what I can learn about behaviors in my own classroom. We are looking at ways to improve the school-wide program for the upcoming school year. I hope that this data may provide us with help in this area as well.
