 * An Opportunity in Overalls **

How is your journey like that of a storyteller? Of a researcher? I began my journey expecting an end to this. I am just now learning this process has no end. It takes many trial and error and the willingness to keep trying!!!

What question did you start out to find answer(s) to?


 * What tweaks, edits, modifications have you made to your focus question?
 * What question(s) remain?
 * What new questions have surfaced as a result of your exploration this far?

As a researcher:

What are you measuring?


 * What patterns are surfacing?
 * What themes are emerging?
 * What does your data suggest?

As a learner:


 * Where have you allowed yourself to be vulnerable in this process?
 * How are you allowing yourself, your professional learning to be 'seen'?
 * In what way(s) have you found the courage to be 'imperfect'?
 * What //a-ha!// moments, elements of a 'spiritual awakening'/"breakdown" have you experienced? What might these insights suggested to you?

What story is unfolding from your research?


 * (//just bullet point notes for now//)

Early Adopter: Inquiry & Design Challenge
 * Which of the [|REAL]strategies have you used to verify the facts and data you are using as evidence (be sure to list all)?


 * If only** the student would take the learning beyond the classroom environment
 * understand how to do research (internet research)
 * build a class resource, blog, wiki[[image:EA learning journey.JPG width="387" height="448" align="right"]]
 * understand how it apply to their lives and why the skills are needed
 * expanding beyond the community

include component="pageList" hideInternal="true" tag="hay13" limit="100" Taking the keyboarding skills and tie it to a content area. Using Edmodo to chat with each other about how they are improving with the skills. Introduce mini URL to practice.
