Research Process 2 - Data gathering for MSC

The following covers the key actions that will happen with respect to the visits for this term:

1. Visit from Faye and Facilitator in either week 6 or week 9 Term 2.
2. Meet with two groups of 2-3 students and the lead teacher for between 30-40 minutes each group (i.e. 3 x 40 minute discussions).
3. Prior to meeting with students Faye and Facilitator meets with the lead teacher for a ‘background catch-up’ and then has a more formal discussion/interview after speaking with the students.
4. Faye and/or the Facilitator drafts a ‘story’ generated from the three separate discussions.
5. Draft story is emailed back to lead teacher for accuracy check – during term 2 holidays.
6. All stories are reviewed and discussed – week 2 of Term 3 to consider most significant change.
7. If you would like to be part of this process please discuss with Faye during the visit in term 2.
8. Reviewed stories are emailed back to teachers and students (after week 2 of term 3 hopefully around week 4).
9. Faye analyses and comments on findings across all stories (during remainder of term 3 looking to report to the Tindall Foundation, WWF and Enviroschools Foundation by mid August).
10. If all participants agree stories posted on the blog (pseudonym’s are used).
11. Facilitators gather a further story during term 3 with their school.
12. Week 2 Term 4 final hui for the project.
