Action Research

Learning about inquiry and 'wonderings' has really influenced the way I think in the classroom. I now question and think about everything I see, hear, or say in the classroom. Everything has taken on new meaning, and seems to mean something deeper than the surface meaning. At my PDS I am experiencing things I have never experienced before in a school. The students seem much more focused and excited about learning than most students that I have worked with. This leads me to wondering how the teacher's dispositions and student attitudes differ and why? I feel that this school is the prime example of quality education, and my main question is,... How can we get other schools up to the par of this school, How is this success achieved???
