Research+Paper

This is where you will find my research paper. = **Assignment reflection** =

=By completing the assignment, I learned about the importance of following a process before writing a research paper. I used to write my research paper in one sitting. With this particular research paper, I gathered all of my research, wrote notes to all the sources I wanted to use, and then I wrote a rough draft paper. When it came time to write the final paper, I did not have much to do. Having my information organized really helped. =
 * ** What did you learn in doing this assignment? **

=We learned about some many different technology tools. Many/ all of the tools can be used for outlines. If I am having my students do some type of research, I can have them create a web or a list of ideas on tools like kidspiration and wordle. =
 * ** How will you use the technology/ideas in this assignment in your future teaching? **


 * ** Identify 1 portfolio standard (CEC/INTASC or NAEYC) and reflect on how this assignment relates to that standard. **

=This assignment relates to this standard because we were prompted to research and learn about a hot topic in education. In completing this assignment I learned about the different ways of helping students succeed. While researching my topic, I found myself discussing with classmates about what I discovered. It is important for each of us to stay informed about the current happenings and changes in the education field. =
