When I Think of Research...

Before this class started I was thinking I was not going to enjoy doing this. After the first couple of classes, I still had the same feeling. When trying to come up with a research topic, I was getting nowhere because everything was too narrow. After doing several assignments done and readings, I started to get the hang of things. I like the idea of research in early childhood education because we want to make sure we are giving children all we can to help them succeed. By doing research you can learn in what ways children respond to the most. This will in the long run help the children, but also help you to better assist them and their parents.What I did gain from this class was the different ways to conduct research. When I was working on my research I used the mixed method research design. I conducted interviews, used questioners, and did observations.
