Product Description

Provides comprehensive coverage of action research methods without being unnecessarily technical

The Second Edition of Action Research: Teachers as Researchers in the Classroom introduces practicing teachers to the process of conducting classroom-based action research. Written for the practicing educator, the focus is on conducting applied, classroom research. The book’s practicality stems from its attention to research methods and procedures that teachers can use with their everyday instructional practices and classroom activities.

New to the Second Edition

  • Incorporates a discussion of rigor in classroom-based action research (Chapter 1)
  • Presents several additional models of action research, including visuals of those models (Chapter 1)
  • Discusses the activity of conducting “reconnaissance” (Chapters 2 and 3)
  • Adds a third Action Research Portrait to illustrate how teachers conduct action research in response to their own classroom situations (Chapters 3-8)
  • Provides a section that encourages educators to develop their own action research communities (Chapter 8)
  • Simplifies the summaries of all nine chapters so that the main points and sub-points are more apparent
  • Offers two new examples of complete action research reports in Appendixes A and B

Now Accompanied by a Student Study Site!

A new Student Study Site (www.sagepub.com/mertler2study) includes comprehensive study materials such as chapter summaries, practice tests, flashcards, and PowerPoint slides. Additional resources include “Learning from SAGE Journal Articles,” “How to Read a Research Article,” and an annotated research report for student reference.
