Webquest Reflection
What? I have learned that Descriptive study is more about describing what, how, and why something is happening. Correlational study is measuring the relationship between two or more variables. Experimental study allows conclusions about cause and effect relationships and which events cause which outcome. Action research is a study that a teacher does with he/ she classroom or school, over a period of time.
So What? The importance of these topics understands the different studies that are conducted. Depending on the study, you will draw out different conclusions compare to another study that is done. That is one important thing about these different studies.
Now What? There is still a lot I need to learn about educational research. I understand the different between each research, but that is how far it goes. I do plan on continuing to learn about each research so that I will know how to use these in my future classroom. For now, I really don’t know how I would use these educational researches in my classroom.

I'm looking for critical reflection on these, so you really need to think about how you will use research. Will you read journals for teachers? Will you perform any research in your classes?
