12 ACTION RESEARCH PROJECT Introduction The action research project is an important component of your MAED/ADM program at the University of Phoenix. By identifying a problem, designing a solution strategy that will result in positive change and analyzing the results, you will be taking an active leadership role in the improvement of a situation in your work setting. Research Project Requirements There are six phases you must complete to successfully fulfill the requirements of the action research project: 1. Writing the problem statement and preliminary planning 2. Completing the sentence outline 3. Writing the research proposal 4. Developing a 3-month implementation phase 5. Writing the research report 6. Presenting results of your study to an interested group outside of University of Phoenix Writing the Problem Statement Perhaps the most important step in the process is clearly stating the problem. Avoid beginning this process by developing research questions. Historically, students new to the research process have no idea why they should even be asking one. Some typical questions have been, What have researchers found out about dyslexia? or Who are the most notable experts in the field of drug and alcohol awareness? Too large in scope or irrelevant to their own setting, these questions often result in a frustrating, lengthy discussion between student and faculty. Problems should also be more than program evaluation. In action research, you should think critically about your own setting and write down 1-3 problems that you feel currently exist. A statement like, It is not known what effect Silent Sustained Reading (SSR) has on students test scores does not necessarily mean a problem exists. After a study of this nature is conducted and results analyzed, the findings will be that the program has a positive effect, a negative effect or no effect at all. In this case, a student is merely wondering if a problem 12

13 does exist. Results can be reported, but change is not necessarily made. Action is the key word in action research: what can be done to change the current situation? A better statement might be Students who practice SSR for one hour a day exhibit low reading scores. If this problem can be documented, the student can then recommend an alternate plan which, if implemented, might improve the reading scores. This is the process schools and businesses currently engage in through school improvement teams or continuous improvement committees. Rarely do busy professionals take the time to study something that is not a documented problem. Herein lies the difference between action research and traditional research. You should also choose a problem you have the ability to impact within the context of this study. For example, one student may feel his/her school building is too small to house the current student population; if his/her solution strategy involves the construction of a new school building, it is probably a problem that cannot be solved within the scope of his/her study. You should address problems which: 1. Directly impact your students, co-workers, or campus; 2. Can be improved within a realistic time frame (3-4 months); and 3. You, personally, have the ability to impact. Together, you and your research advisor should review at least three (3) problems, select the one most appropriate to the research proposal requirements, and refine the problem statement. You may then ask 2-3 related questions you would specifically like to address. Most important, solutions should not be mentioned in the problem statement: 1. Appropriate problem statement: Some students in bilingual classrooms are failing district-reading tests. 2. Inappropriate problem statement/solution mentioned: Pull-out programs are not meeting the needs of bilingual students. In the second example, pull-out programs are really a statement about a solution strategy, effective or not. It may be a cause; it may be part of another solution. The problem statement should address only the problem. As a researcher, you should look only at observable, measurable conditions that actually document the existence of a problem. 13

14 TASKSTREAM The University of Phoenix utilizes the Taskstream Tools of Engagement, webbased application tools, to show progression within programs and allow students to showcase their coursework. The Directed Response Folio (DRF) is a collection of assignments throughout the MAED/ADM program that demonstrate competencies, show program progression based on program standards, and mastery of specific courses through evaluation of assignments. Additionally, pertinent internship forms will be submitted through Taskstream. All MAED/ADM students will create Taskstream accounts and utilize the applications as designated by course instructors and the internship faculty supervisor. Taskstream Portfolio assignments are shown in the following chart.

15 ADMINISTRATIVE INTERNSHIP Each student is required to complete a 240 hour internship experience in a public school. Students will be under the direct supervision of a University faculty supervisor and a licensed school administrator who will act as their site supervisor. The following information defines the roles of the site supervisor and faculty supervisor, the placement process for students, site selection, and assessment relating to the internship, and pertinent forms. Overview The internship is divided into three sections (EDA 590 A/B/C) that coincide with the coursework completed in the master's program. The preferred course sequence for the program details exactly where these sections fall. Assessment Students will be evaluated on a grading scale of A through F for the internship experience. In order to successfully complete the program students must obtain a B or better in the internship experience. If an internship student fails to attain the expected level of competency or does not fulfill all of the required assignments, the student will be given an opportunity to repeat the internship experience and demonstrate the deficient competencie(s) and/or required assignments at the expected level of performance. If after repeating the internship a student is still unable to demonstrate the required competencies or complete the required assignments at the expected level, the student will not receive a passing grade for the internship course and will not be recommended for program completion. Candidates are evaluated during the internship course by the University faculty supervisor and the site supervisor. Both the University faculty supervisor and the site supervisor are required to complete formal evaluations of the internship student at the culmination of the internship course. Placement The University is responsible for securing an appropriate site and site supervisor for the internship experience. This placement will be done in collaboration with the school district and student. Final placement is dependent on the University s assessment of the site. All internship sites must meet University of Phoenix and Florida standards. Twenty to twenty-five percent of the pupils at the selected school must be from an ethnic group other than that of the intern. To avoid ethical issues, interns may work at their home school if the population served as an intern is not the same as the population served as a full time teacher. 15

16 The University will conduct an orientation prior to the start of the internship for the student, site supervisor, and University faculty supervisor. This orientation will introduce the site supervisor to the University and will help ensure that all parties have a clear understanding of the University s program and requirements for successful completion of the internship. * Students must have completed all school district fingerprinting requirements prior to beginning their internship. Supervision Supervisory responsibilities for the internship are assigned to the University faculty supervisor and the site supervisor. The University faculty supervisor will represent the University of Phoenix and will hold faculty status. The site supervisor will represent the school district where the internship experience is being conducted. It is the role of both the University faculty supervisor and the site supervisor to continually assess and provide feedback to students. The University faculty supervisor will teach the workshops that comprise the didactic portion of the internship and work collaboratively with the district site supervisor during the internship. The University faculty supervisor serves as an ongoing resource for the site supervisor, and monitors and evaluates the internship students progress. University faculty supervisors meet regularly with the group of internship students under their direction to problem-solve and share best practices. This faculty member must have a master s or doctoral degree, hold the applicable state administrative license, and must have supervisory experience. All University faculty supervisors must be University faculty members who have gone through the extensive University faculty assessment process. Selection will be based on the degree of knowledge, experience, and expertise possessed, and on the basis of recent and noteworthy leadership experience brought to the field of study. An interview screening process and evidence of relevant work in this area will determine the faculty s appropriateness. The site supervisor also is an integral part of the internship experience. The experience and knowledge the site supervisor shares with the internship student is key to the success of the internship. The site supervisor needs to be available to oversee, evaluate, and provide feedback to the internship student on a consistent basis and without conflict of interest involving other district assigned duties and responsibilities. The site supervisor must have the applicable state license for his/her current assignment, possess a master s degree, and have at least three years of administration and supervision experience. The site supervisor is responsible for providing systematic and intensive on-site supervision of the internship student's progression in performance. The internship experience will provide an opportunity to perform administrative or counseling projects/tasks that relate to the student's career goal. Assigned tasks will allow the internship student to initiate and organize projects and see them 16

17 through to completion, provide opportunities for practical experiences, apply problem solving and critical thinking skills, and strengthen leadership skills. Both the site supervisor and University faculty supervisor are trained in the use of evaluation instruments and standard observation, feedback, and coaching strategies to assist internship students in developing their skills. Both the University faculty supervisor and the site supervisor will jointly determine if the candidate has met all competencies. 17

18 SITE APPROVAL AND AGREEMENT The University is responsible for obtaining site approval from a designated school and internship approval from the University of Phoenix faculty member teaching EDA 590A. In addition, the student must always comply with all legal and ethical procedures that apply to the practice of school administration. Concerns about such issues by anyone involved with the supervision of University of Phoenix internship students should be directed to the campus Director of Academic Affairs. The following form must be filed at the University and the appropriate school site office. University of Phoenix Site Approval and Agreement Form School Name: Address: Student Population: (minimum of 150) Phone Number: Site Supervisor Name: Phone Number: Address: Level of Education (Masters required) Years of Administrative Experience: EDA/590A Instructor Agreeing to the internship site as outlined above are the following individuals: Internship Student Signature Date Site Supervisor Signature Date School Principal Signature (If not Site Supervisor) Date Education Campus College Chair Date 18

19 DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE INTERNSHIP LOG An Internship Log must be completed weekly by the administrative intern and must comply with the following directions: 1. Make enough copies of the Internship Log form to track your internship hours on a weekly basis throughout your program of study. 2. Record the dates of each week where indicated. 3. Record the total number of hours per week in each activity under the appropriate column. 4. Total the number of hours for the week and complete the weekly totals row. 5. Obtain your site supervisor's initials every week. 6. At the end of the month, total the hours spent in each activity by adding the hours across each activity and indicate the total in the monthly total column. 7. Obtain the site supervisor's signature. Keep this in your file to be submitted to the University faculty supervisor monthly and at the completion of the internship. 19
