Action Research and its' Uses

Action Research is when a person wonders how a particular practice can be improved. They systematically look at their practices and then make changes based on those observations.

Action Research is particularly interesting to me because I am naturally curious. I am continually trying to improve my craft of teaching and Action Research gives me the best way to implement change in my practice and to analyze how the changes affects the outcome. Change can then be introduced to enhance the outcome.

Through Action Research I plan on evaluating the use of technology on my campus. By analyzing the teachers' interests I hope to bring the use of technology into more classrooms more often. Using Action Research I can make sure that technology is not being used just for the sake of using technology. I hope to introduce ways of communicating between the experienced users and novice users so that a learning community will be formed.

I am looking forward to generating excitement and opening new ways of learning to the teachers and students on my campus. With this blog I will chronicle the journey I am taking on implementing Action Research on my campus.

You are cordially invited to come join me on my quest for awesomeness.
