1) Action research begins by identifying a problem through self-reflection on what is currently happening and what aspects seem problematic. The researcher then develops a plan to understand and improve the situation. 2) The plan involves taking deliberate action while making spontaneous decisions, observing the effects of the action, and reflecting on lessons learned to inform future planning and action. 3) The results of action research are only valid for the particular situation studied and are not generalizable to other contexts. The goal is to gain a deeper understanding of the specific problem experienced.

2. How to begin an Action Research?
Begin by asking yourself….
>What is happening now?
>In what sense is this problematic?
>What can I do about it?
General starting points could look like:
>I would like to improve the…
>Some people are unhappy about…
>I am confused by…
>What can I do to change the ****
>How the experience of *** be applied to ***

4. WHAT ARE THE LIMITATIONS OF ACTION RESEARCH?
1. It is based on present situation and thus results may be applicable
only at present time.
2. Determining what is good and bad for the situation through action
research may be imprecise
3. Teachers who conduct action research can be considered as
observers
4. To begin action research, ask yourself what is happening now and
what seems to be problematic
5. The first stage is developing a plan of action to understand and
improve what is already happening. In this sense planning is
strategic.

5. WHAT ARE THE LIMITATIONS OF ACTION RESEARCH?
6. The second stage is to act to implement the plan. Action is both
deliberate and controlled but at the same time dynamic. It requires
spontaneous decisions and practical judgment.
7. The next phase is to observe the effects of the action in the context in
which it occurred. Careful documentation of the effects of the action is
critical as this will help you better understand what is happening and
lead to more informed strategic action

6. WHAT ARE THE LIMITATIONS OF ACTION RESEARCH?
8. The final procedure is to reflect on these effects as a basis for further
planning and subsequent action
9. Reflection, which is integral to the process of action research , is the
ability to step back and critically analyze your actions, decisions or
products by focusing on what you did or are doing and learning lessons
that can be applied to new situations.

7. What is Action Research?
Action Research is a form of inquiry aimed at solving a specific and
practical solution to a problem. As such its results are only valid for a
particular case and are not meant to apply on other situation.
The aim of action research is to deepen understanding (diagnosis) of
your OWN EXPERIENCED problem. It therefore adopts an exploratory
stance towards any initial definitions of a situation experienced.
Action research tells a “story” about an event by relating context of
mutually interdependent possibilities, as their occurrence may depend
with each other
Action research interprets point of view of those acting and interacting
in the problem situation
