Detailed explanation-1: -For all that action research is concerned with improvements to practice, the theoretical angle is also important as all research seeks to build theory. Action research is generally inductive rather than deductive – that is, the data collection builds rather than tests theory.
Detailed explanation-2: -Action research can be based in problem-solving, if the solution to the problem results in the improvement of practice. Action research is iterative; plans are created, implemented, revised, then implemented, lending itself to an ongoing process of reflection and revision.
Detailed explanation-3: -Action research invites teachers to learn more about their classroom practice, enrich their pedagogical repertoire and reflect on the way they teach. Through action research, teachers’ attitudes, professional identities and expertise can keep evolving, as they consider their needs in their own context.
