I have not formulated my driving question as of yet but feel more confident after the assigned reading.
The research activity of my driving question has to be approved by the IRB. According to Mertler (2012), making sure that action research adheres to ethical standards is the responsibility of the educator-researcher. Most universities and school districts have some sort of review process for ensuring that a proposed research study is conducted in such a manner so as to protect the rights of the human subjects involved. Your need to knows must completely as possible describe the situation or problem that you want to change or improve. In chapter 3 of Mertler's, Action Research Improving Schools and Empowering Educators we are asked to consider the following on our topic:
Some ideas for my driving question are: How can classroom community building help my English learners feel more included? How can classroom community improve literacy for English language learners?

I have not finalized my driving question yet either. I think that as you keep reading and researching you will have a clearer idea of what you want your question to be. I think that building classroom community is so important. It is especially important when you have reluctant participants in your class. Maybe you can create a survey or questionnaire where students can share how they feel in the classroom.
