Book Description
Action research is a common journey for graduate students in education and other human science fields. This book attempts to meet the needs of graduate students, in-service teachers, and any other educators interested in action research and/or self-study. The primary purpose of this book is to offer clear steps and practical guidance to those who intend to carry out action research for the first time. As educators begin their action research journey, we feel it is vital to pose four questions: What is action research, and how is it distinct from other educational research? When is it appropriate for an educator to conduct an action research project in their context? How does an educator conduct an action research project? What does an educator do with the data once the action research project has been conducted?
In the second section of the book students are assisted with the challenges of developing research questions, evaluating and choosing the right sources, searching for information, avoiding plagiarism, and other useful topics.
