Activity 1: Writing an Action Research Plan
In a world where education is the key to unlocking limitless potential, there exists a transformative force known as Classroom-Based Action Research (CBAR). It is any research into practice undertaken by those involved in that practice, with the primary goal of encouraging continued reflection and making improvement. It can be done in any professional field but is particularly popular in the field of education. When it comes to teaching, practitioners may be interested in trying out different teaching methods in the classroom but are unsure of their effectiveness. Action research provides an opportunity to explore the effectiveness of a particular teaching practice, the development of a curriculum, or your students’ learning, hence making continual improvement possible. In other words, the use of an interactive action-and-research process enables practitioners to get an idea of what they and their learners really do inside of the classroom, not merely what they think they can do. By doing this, it is hoped that both the teaching and the learning occurring in the classroom can be better tailored to fit the learners’ needs.
