AcGon Research : KuanGtaGf & KualitaGf I usually classify ac#on research under what is usually called cri#cal paradigm. However, as the chapter argues there are different types of ac#on research some of them are very semi-­‐posi#vist. However, the type of ac#on research that I encourage is ala Kemmis and his colleagues, which fits under the cri#cal paradigm the way I understand it from the lecture notes. You are right to say that ac#on research does not differen#ate between the value of the different data types – that is it uses both qualita#ve and quan#ta#ve as need be. However, if depth is to be achieved, quan#ta#ve data is limited. Most ac#on research studies rely heavily on qualita#ve data. 2. Pre – service teachers conduct acGon research I know what you are talking about. In the Philippines also there is a percep#on that ac#on research is informal research that only school teachers do. I was told by a student that a thesis is not accepted at university if it is ac#on research only. This was denied by the administrators!!! There are hundreds of thesis around the world that use ac#on research as main methodology. Also there are interna#onal journals that mainly publish ac#on research projects!! This is wrong and should be fought and exposed. Having said that, there are many very bad research that claims to be ac#on research and is not rigorous not well thought. But then there are very bad experimental research too ;-­‐) In the mind of many people this is what makes ac#on research ac#on research! As I argue in the book chapter I sent, there are many other important characteris#cs that I value. Not all ac#on research tradi#ons of course adopt them. 3. Cycles and Time The concept of a cycle simply says that planning and implemen0ng does not happen in linear way. You plan act and reflet in spiral way. But then all qualita0ve research does that to a certain extent. In my mind, it does not ma6er what those cycles are and how many of them there are. Some project formalise the cycles more than others. There are no rules about how many of them should be. Like all research when you run out of 0me, and develop sufficient learning, you stop ;-­‐) 4. Cycles , Focus, and Criteria Regarding the cycles (most of my colleagues focused on it), if the research focus is students engagement, should we determine criteria of successful students' engagement that we need to improve for each cycle? Yes. Like all research, the variables have to be clarified a li6le bit. However, in countries such as Philippines and I imagine Indonesia, there is a tendency of insis0ng that variables are measured by a ques0onnaire. I would resist that. Student engagement can be manifested in many ways. It can be things they say – and not only when we ask them! – things they do including amount of 0me they spend on project as other distrac0ons, the exten0on of the work they do. I recall both Hendra and Nurwa0 used this reference to talk about engagement Chapman, E. (2003). Alterna0ve approaches to assessing student engagement rates. Prac#cal Assessment, Research & Evalua#on, 8(13). 5. Pre-­‐service teachers teach in classroom during ac0on research? That is always problema0c in ac0on research in thesis work. Typically the researcher works with the teachers to change their own prac0ce. Hence the teachers should be conduc0ng the teaching. However, in short term projects, the logis0cs of the situa0on may make this more difficult since the teachers need to be professionally developed to teach in a certain way. In some cases, it is possibly be6er that the students teach the class and write about their own learning and their own prac0ce. There are no fixed rules about it. any decision needs to be jus0fied either theore0cally or for strategically. The wri0ng up (and possibly the research ques0ons) would be slightly different in each case. But either decision generate interes0ng learning. 6. Ac0on Research and Students’ Achievement This is the same ques0on about engagement above. Tests and surveys are so much entrenched in understanding of research here and in Indonesia. I always encourage my students to think about student learning rather than achievement. This may include achievement on tests, but this is only a small part of the learning that results. Unfortunately, I don’t have a single reference that discusses this. however, if you look at your curriculum and find out ‘outcomes’ or standards that are higher than knowledge you may find a wider understand of learning (that may include communica0on, confidence – ie learning about themselves – learning about mathema0cs – higher order thinking etc depends on what the project aims are. 7. Thesis wri0ng format for ac0on research There is no specific thesis wri0ng format. Many students s0ck to the tradi0onal format since examiners feel comfortable with it. the danger is AR thesis, like most qualita0ve thesis, is to go to one two extreems, on one hand just be narra0ve in terms of sta0ng what happened rather than analysis and the other not to pay enough a6en0on to what actually happened and what people actually said. a balance between narra0ve and themes should also be maintained.
