  • Title: Examining the Impact of Technology Integration on Student Engagement and Achievement in the Classroom

    A one page summary of your “problem”  You can take highlights from your lit review, so DO NOT reinvent the wheel.  Think of it as the way you might explain the project to a colleague that hasn’t seen it yet. 
    2.  Your research methodology.  in a couple pages give a detailed explanation to what you were trying to change, how you proposed to change it, how you “tested ” for the change, what did you keep constant, did you have any significant events that might have influenced your results?
    3.  What were your results?  Use whatever statistics you can to show that you found a Real Difference  between your pretest and posttest.  this is were you might use a t-test, Chi square, or etc.
    4.  Use your final section to “close the loop” between what was seen in existing literature to what you found.  If you found the same or similar results, that is expected.  Directly cite the works that your results resemble.   Acknowledge the limitations of the study .  Lack of sample size, lack of time for a “treatment” would certainly be two of them.  Finally, is there further research that could be done in this area that would be beneficial to you, your school, your district, your students? Since we were trying to solve a problem, we should let people knw if we actually did.
