Today I finished my final individual interview for my research! Hooray!
I was surprised (a little) at how much I enjoyed listening to teachers through the interview process. I knew I would like it... I did design the study after all. And getting the story straight from the voice of classroom teachers was the goal. So it's not just that I liked it... it brought me JOY to be able to listen to teachers and acknowledge their feelings-good and bad. It brought me JOY to share genuine interest in the difficult and complicated and rewarding mission teachers have taken on to educate our children. It brought me JOY to think that maybe, just maybe, by listening I can make a difference.
Now...I've got transcribing and coding to do!
