My Action Research Topic

With the push for technology on our campus now, my site supervisor strongly encouraged that we look at the benefits of implementing a Smart Board in the classroom. She wanted to limit the technology to only the Smart Board since they have already been purchased and we can eliminate that from our list of to-do’s. We can conduct staff development on the Smart Boards. We are looking at the question: “Can the implementation of a Smart Board into a math classroom improve conceptual understanding and increase standardized test scores?” We hope to get our Smart Board in before the STaaR test this April. Then, we plan to take our 6th grades lowest student expectation from last year and give the students a review before the test using the Smart Board. Will we see an increase in the scores? If it doesn’t happen, we can give a pre and post-test to collect data.
