I have learned a lot about the different types of research and the different subgroups which contribute to research studies. I never realize how many aspects go into proposing a research topic. there are numerous different ways to design and conduct research which I am now more familiar with and I now have expanded my vocabulary concerning research. My biggest challenge was posing the question I truly wanted to ask. I was unable to formulate it in quite the right way, and ended up taking a slightly different direction. In terms of early childhood research professionals, it takes a great deal of time and effort, as well as trial and error, to ensure a solid research foundation and method.
Congratulations to the class on the completion of yet another course!
Hi Lauren,
ReplyDeleteI learned much in this class and now know that much planning goes into designing a high-quality research study. The formulation of a research question was also a challenge for me at first, but I got the hang of it after feedback from Dr. Kien. Congratulations to you as well, for completing this class. Now on to course number 6! Wishing you the best as you continue to pursue your early childhood degree!!
