Research is more than a collection of information from a source. Research must project “subjective processes, social relations, and artifacts (including research instruments and methods) enable researchers to objectively comprehend phenomena” (Ratner, 2002). However, the postmodernist contention that the…
Similarly, in “In Helping Students Use Textual Sources Persuasively,” Margaret Kantz frames the reading by sharing her input on what facts, opinions, and arguments actually are. First, Kantz states that, "'research' does not mean compiling facts and transmitting them to a teacher, but instead it is using a variety of conflicting sources to make an original argument on the subject that one is researching." In other words, when writing a research paper, it is important to enter into the…
In high school, I went to an upper level math-science academy. This school was similar to college, with set lecture/lab times, research days, and small class sizes with informal assessments. During research days, we divided into our small research groups to work on our year-long research project. We wrote scientific papers and presented our findings to the whole academy at the end of the year, which was quite the educational experience. For my senior…

The research hypothesis is structured appropriately, and could have been used for a research goal. However, the researcher fails to elaborate on the test, and the procedure that was done in class, leading up to the tests. The study does not explain how classroom teachers put the Montessori method into effective use. It just explains what was done, and how the results were obtained. The study was not given a specific time frame. This makes it hard enough to determine…
