Title-The Effect of Early vs Delayed Start Times of Classes on Grades of High School Students

The article talked about how high school students that had a class earlier in the morning vs. students that had the same class in the afternoon did better or worse. The research that was conducted was correlation research. They found that the students who took the class in the afternoon had a higher grade in the class. They looked at over 61000 students to conduct this study. The one problem that I see with this research is their was no cause and effect. Their are a lot of variables that could play in this situation. How ever they did look at a large amount of students in this study. I found the article very interesting however it would be fun to conduct some experimental research in this study. This article made me think about this class. I hope that because it is an early class I get a good grade.

Learning Log 9/15
I learned the difference between what kind of research could be done in the class room. It was interesting to see the differences and correlation between all the studies. I liked the way we talked about the strengths and weaknesses of the difference studies. It also made me think about the kind of studies that I would want to conduct in my classroom. I feel that it is important to conduct the different studies in our classrooms the help the students learn. I learned that not all studies may be perfect to implement in the classroom. That is why it is important to conduct your own studies. And not just any studies but the right studies.

Motivation
I am here because I love teaching. I like making a difference and influencing people. It is a career that I can do every day and love it.
I am motivated by goals and results.
I succeed because of the hard work and the effort i put into a gaol.
I fail because of the lack of effort I put into a goal.
I am on my way to graduating the program. So I don't have to change my motivation.
