An Essential for Action Researchers May 3, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This guide is not pedantic or condescending in tone to the veteran or beginning educator. It is a down to earth guide with easy-to-follow suggestions. It provides a clear process by which anyone may engage in action research. It provides points for thinking and examples of each stage of the process. I used this text for writing my masters and I found it especially helpful when coming to conclusions about my data.
