• Building Capacity in the Collaborative Process -
  What's Your Focus?
• The sharing of ideas can be a beneficial process
  during collaboration (Atweh, Kemmis, Weeks,
  1998 Goleman, Boyatzis, McKee, 2002). Those
  researchers and professionals in the field who
  support collaborative learning strongly believe
  that sharing ideas with others increases
  interest among the participants but also promotes
  critical thinking (Gokhale, 1995, para 2).
  Further, collaboration lets you share
  responsibility and combine the knowledge,
  creativity, and experiences of others (Unknown
  (n.d.) Often, when we collaborate through the
  exploration and insightful sharing of each
  others ideas, we can systematically improve upon
  our own.
• As a way of further developing your action
  research and communicating your ideas to your
  classmates, you now have the opportunity to
  accomplish both while

providing feedback to your class peers. The
purpose of this process is twofold. First, it
promotes your critical thinking and, second, it
gives you an opportunity to share your
experiences in the research design. In summary,
the process of providing collaborative feedback
builds capacity in your thought process and in
the implementation of your action research
study.Initial Post Respond to the following
prompts in relation to your own study in
detailed, yet succinctly written paragraphs.   
 Post the link to your Action Research Proposal
and/or upload the document/presentation from your
EDU671.     Describe the Area of Focus for your
action research study.    Explain the Research
Question(s) for your action research study and
the importance of their application.  
 Describe the individual roles of each research
participant in your action research study.Your
initial post functions as a springboard for peers
and the instructor to respond to you with
constructive ideas and feedback about your study.
You share your Action Research Proposal with
peers to obtain ideas and feedback on your
proposal. If you have already identified a change
to your proposal (e.g., research questions,
population, setting, intervention, data
collection techniques or personnel involved in
your project) make those changes before you share
your presentation.Note In Week Four you will
describe the roles and responsibilities of the
identified personnel and the specific leadership
strategies you observed. This initial process in
this discussion supports the Week Four
activity.Guided Response Respond to two peers,
preferably those that have not yet had responses,
and provide constructive feedback and questions
regarding their Action Research Proposal. Ask
clarifying questions to assist with their process
of deepening their study. Some questions to
consider as you respond to your peers include Is
the area of focus clearly stated (you know what
they are centered on for their study)? Is there
direct alignment between the research question(s)
and area of focus statement (do they match up
logically?) Are the research questions
potentially answerable? What suggestions can you
provide regarding their actual intervention/innova
tion? (Is it appropriate/suitable)? Do the data
collection techniques align with the research
questions and are they manageable? Remember,
though two replies is the basic expectation, for
deeper engagement and learning, you are
encouraged to provide responses to any comments
or questions others have given to you (including
the instructor) before the last day of the
discussion to allow for adequate time for
responses. This will further the conversation
while also giving you opportunities to
demonstrate your content expertise, critical
thinking, and real world experiences with this
topic.
