What?
I learned a lot about the different types of research that can be done. I never knew about anything other than the experimental research.
Descriptive: is a study that you can do just by describing a situation.
Correlation: is a study where you look at the relationship between two, or more things.
Experimental: is the typical research type with the control group with different variables tested.
Action Research: can be done in a classroom or school by teachers or personnel to make changes in the way things are done.

So What?
I think this a great base for what we will be learning about the rest of the semester. Everything we learn will be added on to the foundation we now have.

Now What?
I think it would be helpful to study different studies done in each of the research areas. It would help me to see how they are carried out. Right now I just know about the research types and have read a few studies. Maybe it would be beneficial to even participate in each of the research types to get an inside view about how everything works.
