Things are finally moving along….. BS, you were correct about working with a system…lots of hoops to jump through, but, I think this will work out. This week, I met with the director of research and the asst. to the sup for C and I. We met for two hours…. the first hour was a review of the IRB and a review and critique of the intended interview questions. I received very helpful and valuable feedback and I am happy to report that the questions and structure we created remained intact–they were pleased with everything. Then, we determined which groups to solicit for interviews– we decided to look for two elementary, two middle, two high and two C and I leadership staff. An email will be sent to all admins and the director will match their responses and avaiability with dates that we are both available… he would like to attend the interviews (I am assuming this is ok). He will send the email that I drafted (included in my irb) to the admins and then we wait~ the goal is to start interviews the week of May 9.
I also received the data from the two trainings that I led…. I reviewed this information last week. I think this information will also be useful in answering my research questions…I am just unsure of how to include it in this project. I can show you the data and maybe we can talk about how I can combine it with the interviews??
