"This could be a super research project, if it were designed to capture pros and cons. Any ideas for a research design using a blog as a tool? Sent fandomly to educators/ students and analyzed by groups?
...Just a thought."
My comment: Any ideas? Let's have a discussion about this.

I was wondering how we could devise a study in which we could use a blog to collect data on the impact of NCLB from various perspectives.
Perhaps we could devise a methodology with lead researchers in each state. Try to randomize etc- I think a "scientific study" would have more impact in driving policy.
We might collaboratively develop
1)a literature review by posting a bibliography of articles,
2)research questions,
3)a likert scale as well as open ended items, and
4)a pilot methodology- including ways to analzye data
5)and participants to pilot it in their state.
6)identify resources etc to support this research
We would need people who have an expertise in designing such a study to help. This is a great opportunity for young profs. to begin or continue a line of research.
Cathy Kurkjian has a great idea. Please comment and pass this blog and information on to others.

This is a wonderful opportunity for all. Let's support Kurkjian's idea.
