Action research allows the investigator to apply information in a very tangible and useful manner. Far too often research exists only on the written page and never in a movable form that allows the researcher to test theories and reflect on its importance. The research allows the real world to become the lab at which the best application of academic knowledge reaches the area of greatest need.
I am currently enrolled in a course for my master's degree where I will attempt to apply action research in the field of educational leadership. There are many problems that action research can solve and the school system provides the perfect environment to test the knowledge gained from the almost infinite supply of education journals and writings.
This blog will be my ongoing attempt to relate action research with the topic of my choosing. My further posts will be an applicable discussion on my topic and the action research.
