I am nearing the end of my first year in grad school. Even more than I anticipated, blogging and getting feedback from readers has been exceptionally helpful in pinpointing the things in mathematics education that really matter to me the most and in finalizing my action research proposal. With that said, I wanted to post my preliminary research proposal in case anyone is interested in reading it. It is rather long and still relatively "un-polished" but I owe much of it's creation to readers who regularly push my thinking. Thanks! How does a mathematics classroom centered in habits of mind support students in realizing mathematical agency?

@David: Thanks for your feedback. I have some questions about things you hint at here:

Hi Bryan,
Saw in your bio that you went to usd for undergrad not sure where you are getting your masters but this past April I presented at usd's action research conference on my action research on problem based learning in high school math classroom. If you haven't been to conference you should attend next year. Great for networking and learning how others do action research. I also found the poster sessions really interesting and informative.

And research plan I would have been sunk.

@Jamie: Thanks for the advice. My "Understandings" section is the equivalent of a lit review (the references are also available on the website that hosts my AR proposal). I am also working on revising my "Setting" to include more of what you suggest, best practices and a more detailed account of how the class operates.
