Corey (Plan, Act, Observe, and Reflect), which of the following statements is most authoritative and scientifically true regarding the ontological distinction between fundamental research and action research, and its practical utility?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Explanation of Action Research
The primary objective of action research is to find prompt, practical, and localized solutions to immediate problems specific to a school or classroom. It is conducted independently by teachers and headmasters to improve their own teaching methods and working procedures.
- Action Research: Localized, immediate, and practical problem-solving.
- Fundamental Research: Broad scope aimed at establishing new theories and universal laws.
In contrast, fundamental research focuses on theory formulation rather than immediate classroom application.
