Data collection
This document outlines several research questions and proposed methods for collecting data to answer each question. For the first question about how motivation affects students' perceptions, participation, focus, and assignment completion, the proposed tools are focus groups, observations, surveys, assignment tracking and portfolio checks. Data will be collected over one semester, with focus groups and surveys conducted monthly and other tools used daily. For the second question on how technology changes student reactions to course materials, the tools of teacher interviews, observations, surveys and video recordings are proposed. Data collection would include daily video recordings and observations, and weekly surveys. The third question on the effects of technology on learning skills proposes surveys at the end of each week, as well as records

Data collection
- 1. Research Questions Data Collection Tools Why this tool? Justify its use in your study. How does it match with what you are attempting to find and to measure? Timeframe: How and when data will be collected. 1.How does motivationeffect the students perception, participation, focus, and assignment completion? Focus Group, Observation,Performance,Survey Questions, Assignment Tracking, PortfolioCheck. The data tools use give me feedback andallow meto collect data that is valid,and reliable. The match ofthe tools allows observation of behavior, attitudes, and perceptions. The information that is gathered assignments completion,and incompletions byrecording and ofquestions, tracking. Time frame one semester Focus group and surveys will be done in the first week and end ofeach month Assignments-Daily Check list- daily Observation daily 2.How does technology tools (social network sites, and other powerful web tools) Change the way students react toward instructors presentation ofcourse materials? Teacher Interviews, Observations, Surveys, Video Recordings. I chose the tools because they allow me to clarify information, process knowledge, and identify opportunities to improve conditions. They match because information is gathered for questions that are answered. Teacher Interview before study began. Video- Daily Observations- Daily Survey Ratings end of each week 3.What effects technology tools haveon learningskills for Academic gain and success? I chose these tools because they help me to determine the importance ofeach group differences, and variable differences Surveys at end ofweek checklist- daily Records- beginningof study and end of study. Grades after test and semesters end. DO Student stay on track or distractedwith other technology? Observation, Monitoring, Checklist These tools help me keep notes as the student actively engage in assignments that demonstrate focus or distractions Monitored dailykeepinga check list, Observations take notes ofstudent focus overall each week. How do we design learningtask and activities, to balance student focus with technology devices with contents, and contexts that is relevant to Learning? Teacher ?PARENT/ STUDENTINTERVIEWS AND SURVEYS Focus Group Observations ASSIGNMENT TRACKING GRADES, TESTS, RECORDINGS, CHECK LIST AND PORTFOLIO These tools are great tools to get data results that will determine effectiveness of the project. Surveys and interviews first week focus group meet each meet observations daily in one class recordings and check list, daily tests end ofevery week, and portfolio one month collection
