I now have a renewed commitment to help others. I graduated with a Doctor of Education degree this month. I cannot express the sense of relief I feel. I also have a renewed resolve to help others learn what I should have known in the beginning. Since I started with my 10 Things I wish I had known, I now have a “new and improved” list and it may have more than 10 things. I want to begin with the end in mind – this is doable and it is not as bad as you would think. Looking back on it I should have had an easier time, but here I am with all of this great advice.
I want to restart this blog with building background. I did a qualitative study. Our research class used Creswell’s Qualitative Inquiry and Research Design (http://studysites.sagepub.com/creswellqi3e/main.htm). I would encourage you to study this book before choosing a design and topic. The upside to qualitative research is you tell a story. The downside is your study depends on people agreeing to be interviewed by you. One of my classmates chose a case study on one individual. The genius in this choice is the option of turning this research into a biography.
