Here is a list of types of language used to develop critical discourse (fancy words for getting teachers to engage and think about what is being suggested). Garrison, D. R., & Anderson, T. (2003). //E-Learning in the 21st century//. London: Routledge Falmer.

This link will take you to the results of the [|survey] you are getting your teachers to do. You may like to keep an eye on the overall results as each of you enters your data and builds up the picture. You'll need the password to get in. Ask me if you haven't already got it written in your [|Any Password] account you keep on your desktop! Hint hint. Ask Paddy if you need to know what this programme is and how to use it, or use the link and download it - then ask Paddy:)

Thanks everyone. All done.

Please complete this survey about your own perceptions prior to the beginning of this research project. Thanks, Heather

Thematic Analysis Tool** This is the way I write up our discussions when we meet. It helps me to pull out the themes that consistently come up and to recognise what we are thinking so I can decide on next steps. I have used it when i first go an observe a teacher to give me a feel for what is happening, and later on to see if any progress is being made. It takes a bit of time, but I wouldn't use it on more than 1 or 2 teachers in a year. Good for the one you want to write up as a casenote. It comes from Mutch, C. (2005). //Doing educational research. A practitioner's guide to getting started.// Wellington: NZCER Press.
