Challenges of Creating Resource

6/24/2019

2 Comments

 
     When creating a resource to share with others a few obstacles come to mind that I might need to address. From our reading of Dervin, Baggio and Clark there are many factors to consider. My DQ askes, "Does implementation of a 21st century inclusive design reduce disruptive behavior?." If my audience cannot relate to the issue of what my resource is trying to help, they do not have any background knowledge and there goes my buy in. I've lost my audience already. If my resource does not apply to them I don't have their interest which could be a potential problem. To address this problem I would need to give some sort of scenario with a demonstration or a movie clip to reel them in and get the wheels turning.
        Another potential problem could be maybe they have this issue as well but it's not what their focus is. They might not really care or want to know more about it. In this case I would need to make it personable. I could provide data and have personal testimonies of other teachers to gain sympathy for others to see a concern.
           Lastly I learned the way the information is presented is very important as well. You can loose your audience if your presentation is too wordy or visually unappealing. The strategies to make information received long-term

Alexis,

I really like your ideas for your presentation to get people to buy in, especially some facts/statistics that would really drive home the need for your study. I am glad you brought this subject up because I need to be able to present my study in a way that everyone can see as valuable or connect with, and since it is math subject specific I might need to be creative with it.
Lastly, your mention of visuals is something that I think is on the front of all of our minds, but I am still finding myself wanting to use words, or having a hard time deciding on a good enough visual that says what I want it to say in my presentations.

Alexis,

I agree that without your student's willingness to participate in your DQ and the strategies you implement would have a negative result. However, I believe that you are on the right track and that with fidelity, you will have the desired outcome you are searching for. I wonder if an observation from a staff member or administrator and their feedback on the effectiveness would be beneficial for your action research; as they may have a different lens and perceptive, that might otherwise be challenging to see while you are actively teaching.

Warm Regards,

Lisa Marie
