Well week 3 for me was very interesting due to the fact that I have been in Dallas at a conference. My day was full of meetings and I had to juggle a lot this week to squeeze in time to finish my assignments. This was a learning experience for me on how things will be once school day with full days and having to manage my time.
My action research is basically a draft because I know for sure I will need to tweak it in some form or fashion. The topic has me real excited to begin this journey: student-athletes and off season/in season athletics. Through my years as a coach I have witnessed athletes pass during the season of their sport but can't seem to make the grades when it is the off season. So this research will provide me with the data to support my concerns.
I think your topic is true in many schools across the country. It will be interesting to see what you discover. The balance between athletics and academics is an issues that is brought up year after year. Good Luck!!
