Reflection of Research Course

I felt that this course overall was very easy to follow and understand.  Everything was clearly explained and organized.However, I thought that the lectures basically contained information that we read or were told about in weekly overviews.  Honestly, I did not find the lectures that necessary.  I thought that the readings were very helpful and were an easy read.  Both books contained vital information for action research that I did not know.  On the other hand, I thought that it would have been more helpful if we were told about purchasing the books earlier or if the assigned readings would not start the first week.  I had to have a rush on the books so I could do the assignment.  I thought the assignments were relevant to what we needed to do for the action research study.  I also thought that they were not too difficult that it took hours to complete.  They were appropriate and reasonable.  The discussion board questions and topics were helpful in the action research plan  by posting responses to what we have been doing.  Since not many people posted comments on our blogs this was the only source of feedback.  I think that it should have been posted the first week that we need to post on others blogs.  We were not told about this until week 3 and therefore I personally got behind.
