Where am I and What have I done?

This is a stop and take stock of what I have done so far so hopefully I can plan more easily where I am going and what steps I need to take to get there.

My inquiry is based around Differentiation within a dance class. To date I have undertaken:

·       Student surveys
·       Dance teacher surveys
·       Dance class observations
·       Student interviews
·       Dance teacher interviews
·       Literature reviews

I have collected a significant amount of data and now begin the process of analysing it to see what exactly I have found out and how this can be incorporated into my own professional practice.

With information from so many different sources I was struggling to link it all together and find out what correlated with each other. To help me with this I have taken the 6 main areas I used to collect information, written my main findings for each and then used arrows to help link correlating evidence together. It has certainly helped me! (Although it may make little sense to anybody else!!)

  1. Like you, I have got to the point where I am starting to link my findings together for my write up and I have found the first big step is getting the ideas on paper. It can often seem a big blur when its all in our heads!
    I have written bullet points of my main findings from each type of data and then tried to collect the ideas together in themes.
    However after looking at your graph, I feel that I have de-personalised the results. I think when considering my findings I to include how I have felt, what I have learnt and allow my own opinion to have more of a say.
    Thanks for sharing (and helping me).
