EDUC 600- Chapter 2 Reflection

Chapter 2 discusses a lot of important information especially about how to actually use what you learn in your education courses and apply it to your PDS classrooms. When I think back to all of the education courses I have taken at WVU I realize how much I have learned including facts, methods, strategies etc. When it comes to research I often struggle with forming the research question. This chapter has a lot of useful information that can be applied when thinking and creating your research question. It gives great detail about the many sections that make up the research inquiry. One section that I believe many of us really struggle with is finding reliable, accurate sources to use. The first place I always think of when looking up information is to do it on the internet, although the internet isn't always the best place. As this chapter explains, it can be difficult to find reliable and accurate sources but it also shows you how to modify your search in order to find some reliable sources. One source that has been a lot of help to me has been the WVU Library online. I have found several articles and books that helped me with my previous research.
