Detailed Explanation
Understanding Action Research in Pedagogy
The action research model proposed by Kurt Lewin inspires teachers and practitioners to scientifically solve specific and immediate problems within their own classrooms or schools.
- Cyclical Process: It involves a continuous cycle of planning, acting, observing, and reflecting.
- Practical Focus: Unlike fundamental research, it aims at local, immediate problem-solving rather than universal theory building.
- Teacher-Researcher: The teacher acts as the primary researcher through self-reflection.
