Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com Helpful to improve teaching! | Customer Rating: | | Our district used to bring Dr. Sagor in for Action Research, and it was a great help. I spent seven years attending professional learning workshops, and would then incorporate that into action research inside my classroom. Dr. Sagor would work with me and other teachers to help us develop a plan for the year. At the end of the year I would write a formal paper, and lay out plans for the following year. It helped me to analyze my teaching and my students, and modify or change what I was doing in order to make my students more successful. I would focus on one topic for two years, and I completed eight years of action research. I feel that I am a better teacher for formalizing my research. This book was our guide, and it is very easy to follow. It takes time to complete action research, but a dedicated teacher would benefit from doing this at least once formally. | Useful for anyone interesting in research techniques that values the issues and perspectives of practitioners | Customer Rating: | Excellent overview of the theory and practice of action research. This short book presents the tools and philosophy in a credible and practical way. It's useful for anyone interesting in research techniques that values the issues and perspectives of practitioners, especially classroom teachers. | I am a high school teacher | Customer Rating: | | As a teacher, I found this book pretty usless. Overall most all education books are worthless nonsense as it's unlike teaching people but running a science lab. Yes, there are good things in here to some degree, but I would find some better way to spend my time to make my teaching better than read this, perhaps make up better lesson plans or a great simulation or power point...? Good luck. I suppose if you want to be a Dr. in Education you might reall like this book, but then please don't make me take anymore worthless classes in which I have to read things like this to keep my job. Thanks. | Highly recommended for education students and professionals. | Customer Rating: | | Guiding School Improvement With Action Research presents a seven-step process for improving teaching and learning in classrooms at all grade levels.
