Make a new start next year with Action Research

Dear all,

First of all, thank Luciana and Simone for giving us the oportunity to keep communicating via the blog Pesquisa Açao.

It was a great pleasure to be in Londrina with Simone and you all and to work with you. It was a long trip to Brazil but it was worthwile. I enjoyed it a lot.

I just edited my profile on our blog and put also my picture and some interesting things about me, e.g. that our last grandchild was born last Wednesday on December 10.

And about our Action Research: I know you all will be busy at the end of the year but after having finished all the burocratic things of this year, it is good to start thinking about our Action Research (AR) plans. I hope you will be able to use our Cd-rom and to develop more your AR-plan and to carry them out. As you may have experienced during the workshop, to become a (still) better teacher, it is you that must undertake action.

I hope to see not only your profiles but all your AR plans in order to help you carrying them out and evaluating them. I am very curious to know how things are working out for you.

I wih you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New and good Action Research Year.
