I'm in something of a weird situation right now (don't ask), so this is the blog I intended to post three weeks ago but never did. Those looking for something fresh and relevant should probably go elsewhere.
We ran into some issues with our group project, mostly caused by the fact that we had one student (me) who didn't live anywhere near the campus, giving us exactly one opportunity outside of class to meet up and discuss what we had done. While my three compatriots were able to meet independently, my group contribution ended up being to simply send an e-mail off to them, telling them what I had done. Which might very well have been all I could do, of course, but it wasn't exactly conducive to a cohesive presentation - while I was up there on stage droning away, I couldn't help feeling like my information didn't always match up with what the others had done. Awkward.
The actual research, on the other hand, went very well. I'd been expecting to have a lot of trouble finding ways to get parents involved in school life. Instead I discovered that there was an entire organization dedicated to the subject; it had come up with a comprehensive list of the different areas of parental involvement, as well as the logic behind them - something I probably wouldn't have thought to include on my own.
