I apologize for the tardiness of this post. After meeting with my site supervisors and taking into consideration their input, this is the 2nd draft of my plan. I welcome any thoughts!

Action Research Plan
Goal: I want to find out if ACC students who have taken developmental class in reading, writing and math have gone on to take college-level classes and how many dropped out.
Action Steps(s):	Person(s) Responsible:	Timeline: Start/End	Needed Resources	Evaluation
I will email each individual campus’ Supervisor of Admissions and Records and the Executive Director of Admissions and Records to determine how many students are currently enrolled in Developmental Reading, Writing, and/or Math classes.	Supervisor of Admissions and Records at the eight individual ACC campuses and Linda Kluck, Executive Director, Admissions and Records	3/25 - 4/18/2013	Access to the names and email addresses of the supervisors and the executive director of admissions and records.	This will give me a raw number of students enrolled in one or more developmental class to begin my study. I may need to narrow down the number of campuses that I will study.
Interview the instructor(s) of a Developmental Reading, Writing, and Math at the all or some of the   campuses I decide to study.	Instructors of a Developmental class.	4/22-6/22/2013	Access to the individual instructors. Compile a list of questions for the interviews.	By interviewing the instructors I can find out how their classes are progressing and other positive or negative factors of teaching these classes.
Gather online data from other 2 year colleges for the type of developmental classes that are offered.	Mary Dunn	5/20-7/12/2013	Access to online services and search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Bing	I will be able to compare other 2 year college developmental class enrollment to ACC’s.
Pass out questionnaire to students currently in a developmental class to anonymously answer about the experience they have had in class.	Mary Dunn	6/10-7/3/2013	Develop a questionnaire. Access to classes	This will enable me to find out just how students taking these classes feel about them.
Compile answers to the completed questionnaires	Mary Dunn	7/8-7/26/2013	Completed questionnaires	I be able to determine the number of positive and/or negative answers to the questions.
Conduct interviews the staff of ACC Learning Labs	Mary Dunn, Staff of learning labs	8/5-8/23/2013	Access to the Learning Lab Staff. Compile a list of questions for the interview.	I will find out how the resources of the Learning Labs are utilized by students enrolled in at least one developmental class
Interview the instructors for results of the   MATD 0332 (Math Plus) Basic Math with Collaborative Learning that ACC is piloting	Mary Dunn Instructors of MATD 0332	9/3-9/13/2013	Access to instructors of MATD 0332 and their classrooms/labs Compile interview questions.	I will be able to find out how effective this new math class is. It has only been offered in the Spring and Summer ’13 Semester.
Conduct research both online and in literature about other alternative developmental classes being planned or  piloted	Mary Dunn	9/23-10/5/2013	Access to internet and search engine. Access to ACC and Lamar Library.	I will discover if there are any alternatives to developmental classes.
Obtain statistics on the success rate of students enrolled in developmental classes and  then proceeded to enroll in  college-level courses	Mary Dunn Admission and Records offices	10/14-11/1/2013	Access to records of students who transitioned from developmental to college-level classes.	I will be able to  determine if developmental class help students to succeed in college level classes
I will analyze and compare data that I have compiled through the inquiry research project.	Mary Dunn	11/4-11/29/2013	Access to all data collected	This will be allow me to compare and contrast the information that I have received through this project.
Prepare a report on my findings and present it to my site supervisor and other interested parties.	Mary Dunn	1/2014	Final report	This will be the culmination of my study.
