The focus of my action research plan is to implement blended learning into school districts located in low-income areas. My research question is “How does blended learning in 3rd grade reading classrooms impact student learning and achievement?”
To address this question, I will conduct a research study and look over different resources in order to obtain my goal in implementing blended learning into the current curriculum. These are just a few sources to get started. I feel like these resources are very important and gives valid points and examples on how and why blended learning will better help the students I come in contact with in the 3rd grade.
I’ve looked over some of my colleagues Lit Review and it seems to me that majority of them have already had the opportunity to have blended learning in their classrooms and have moved on to getting their students to start using Eportfolios and then the rest of us are just getting started with blended learning and ways to continue to help; our students learn.
