This research will be conducted using many methods of qualitative and quantitative data with informal and formal testing, surveys, interviews, and observations. Qualitative and quantitative are the most appropriate combination to effectively provide information regarding student achievement and student engagement. The qualitative data will provide opportunities for students and teachers to express their opinions, while quantitative data will provide a statistical analysis using various collection methods (Mertler, 2016).

The mix of these types of research will provide strength in the research and confidence of formed conclusions.  ​

Students are so focused on grades, that they often lose the ability to recognize that there is much more to learning than memorization or test taking.
