'This book is a modern catalyst for change in higher education. I
have made it required reading for doctoral students,
administrators, and faculty who must update their pedagogy to raise
student learning' - Joseph Martin Stevenson, Provost and Vice
President for Academic Affairs, Jackson State University Action
research provides a process for educators to individually and
collectively study their own situations, try new practices,
evaluate those innovations, adjust, and try again. In this second,
revised edition, Richard Schmuck demonstrates how educators at all
levels can use action research to improve their professional
practice and change the culture of their schools, districts, or
communities. He shows how educators, by reflecting on their past,
present, and future professional practice, can convert frustrations
into solvable problems, and offers guidance about the potential
pitfalls and challenges experienced when engaging in action
research. This updated workbook covers both proactive and
responsive models of action research and also includes o
Easy-to-understand explanations of methods, steps, and phases o A
chapter devoted to questionnaires, interviews, observations, and
public documents o Guidelines for both solo and cooperative
projects o "How-to" worksheets that guide readers through the
process o Journal-writing activities at the end of every chapter o
Case studies of real action research projects Practical Action
Research for Change is the essential tool for educators to tailor
action research to their specific situation and improve
professional practice.
