This document introduces an action research course and provides information about its purpose, outcomes, and learning targets. It discusses determining learning styles using the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI) profile, which analyzes four quadrants - analytical, organizational, interpersonal, and strategic. The document suggests reflecting on one's HBDI profile to identify strengths and areas of need to help complete an action research study.
