  1. Hi there.
  2. I'm Jinnai Solano, and this is my research proposal.
  3. My research was done on distance learning, and just to
  4. clarify what it is, distance learning is a separation of
  5. the student and teacher and uses technology to deliver asynchronous
  6. or synchronous lessons.
  7. Um, so why is this research needed?
  8. We have Cove in 19 on this with us, and
  9. will be for a while based on what the experts
  10. are saying.
  11. So we want to give, you know, our kids the
  12. best education possible.
  13. And if we have to go into a stay at
  14. home order again in the full or sometime after that,
  15. we want to be ready.
  16. And so you know, it's part of crisis preparation.
  17. Um, of course, distance learning has been used to teach
  18. students in remote areas for some time.
  19. And, um, I want to get better education.
  20. Uh, for those to those with special needs, um, and
  21. I was, you know, reading articles.
  22. And also from personal experience I am and teaching, um,
  23. during distance, learning, doing zooms with students with special needs,
  24. and it just wasn't working out very well.
  25. Um, you mean you do the best you can with
  26. students who have 80 HD or autism.
  27. And, uh, you know, you're trying to get their attention
  28. and you know, you can only really do what you
  29. can within about 30 minutes.
  30. And, uh, it's it's just not the best approach I
  31. think. Eso we want to see what what are what
  32. is the best way?
  33. So, um, my my research design would be comprised of
  34. mixed method methods using both quantitative and qualitative research.
  35. Uh, collect data over time on student performance in distance
  36. learning programmes.
  37. Conduct separate surveys with the parents and teachers, um, train
  38. the parents so that would also have to be implemented
  39. over time and then collect data to study its effectiveness
  40. on student academic growth.
  41. My questions.
  42. My research questions are What what effects does parent training
  43. have on student academic success in distance learning?
  44. Do parents currently feel confident enough to teach their Children
  45. at home during distance learning?
  46. How does parent involvement involvement affect their academic growth of
  47. special needs?
  48. Students in distance learning?
  49. Do parents feel confident teaching your Children at home?
  50. Do parents understand their Charles disability?
  51. How does this affect the ability to assist a child
  52. in academics effectively so in working with the students during
  53. our stay at home order, I really found parents getting
  54. frustrated with your Children while I was on the zoom
  55. because they're overhearing and they are watching are assisting.
  56. And they're frustrated that the child would know the answer
  57. to something that I talked on the deep, You know,
  58. the previous day that their child is that responding fast
  59. enough? Um, you know, so it really let me know.
  60. Well, maybe they don't fully understand their jobs disability, because
  61. they have, you know, big.
  62. You know, it's in their I p they have, you
  63. know, processing issues or, um, you know, uh, no issues
  64. with memory.
  65. And so, you know, for me, it's a normal thing
  66. when I work with them daily at school.
  67. But maybe the parent eyes unaware of, you know how
  68. to work with that.
  69. Doesn't need the think time that they need to be
  70. re taught things in various ways that they have.
  71. Um, you know, bit multiple opportunities to absorb that information.
  72. Look, so you know, why is this relevant off?
  73. You know, obviously Kobe 19 But first, I'm going to
  74. be just discussing, you know, remote students in remote areas
  75. because distance learning has been used for a very long
  76. time to reach students, usually mainly in the university, who
  77. are in remote areas and don't have access to higher
  78. learning. It's been used by charter schools in elementary who
  79. want to offer an option for home schooling.
  80. Ah, and in this case, parent, usually just to stay
  81. home or have a family member available to teacher there
  82. center daughter.
  83. But lately, with covert 19 um, we've really seen the
  84. need to, um, you know, work with all students at
  85. home across our nation and the responsibility for that facility
  86. for facilitating that really falls on the parents.
  87. Teachers can conduct zooms, but with younger Children, you really
  88. need somebody present to help make sure that goes smoothly
  89. to make sure that they, um, fully understand what's being
  90. taught to make sure that there, especially students with special
  91. needs, you know, are they on the right page that
  92. you're talking about?
  93. Are they, you know, focusing and paying attention?
  94. Um, are they writing down his supposed to?
  95. If there's something that they're supposed to be doing on
  96. their end as well, if they're practicing their writing and
  97. in real time with their teacher.
  98. So a special education students are among the most challenging
  99. to teach under the circumstances of distance learning.
  100. And that comes from personal experience.
  101. And, um, reading articles, especially especially of late and younger
  102. students have a hard time paying attention for experience for
  103. extended periods of time.
  104. And that's where um, you know, the the parent assistance
  105. really can come in and use the most of the
  106. time that is now on the zoom or, you know,
  107. overall for distance making.
  108. So, um, how does this affect my future teaching practice?
  109. Um, you know, it prepares me, Um, and really all
  110. teachers. We need to know what the best methods of
  111. instruction are for our students and special education and how
  112. we can best support them.
  113. It makes me more prepared during the Kobe 19 and
  114. for other natural disasters or whatever other crisis may come
  115. because students may need to go back to a stay
  116. at home order for whatever reasons.
  117. And we want to make sure that we can really
  118. be effective.
  119. And I feel like the parents are really the bridge
  120. to reaching our students at home.
  121. Well, thanks for listening.
  122. And these are the resource is air used for this
