Action Research

"Action Research is a systematic collection and analysis of data relating to the improvement of some aspect of professional practice."

Comments:

• it demands a lot of time from the teacher;
• it is a participatory process that involves all those who have a stake in the issue engaging in systematic inquiry into the issue being investigated.
