Selecting the topic: first thoughts list

I guess it would be beneficial to jot down some initial thoughts about my research question, so:
  • epistemological beliefs, beliefs about intelligence among teachers (who use ICT in their teaching) of secondary-high school education (in Greece) and how these beliefs affect their assessment beliefs and methods (note: they may employ different assessment methods incoherent with their beliefs?)
  • how various assessment methods can motivate or demotivate students; assessment affect students' sense of autonomy?
  • how students' beliefs affect their preference for assessment methods?
  • Should I expand to teachers-students of primary or tertiary education?
  • Should I focus only to secondary education or only to high schools?
  • Should I focus only to ICT teachers or should I include other disciplines also (provided that they use ICT in their teaching practice)?
