5 Phases of Action Research (Nota Kuliah 1)

There are 5 phases as below where phase I to phase V is used repeatly in action research.

Phase I - Problem Identification

  • Why do you want to do it? Is it an important and practical problem, something worth your time and effort, something that could be beneficial to you, your students and others?

Phase II - Plan of Action

  • Will you develop and implement a new strategy or approach to address your question?
  • What is an appropriate timeline for what you are trying to accomplish?

Phase III - Data Collection

  • What types of data should you try to collect in order to answer your question?
  • What resources exist and information from others might be useful in helping you to frame your question, decide on types of data to collect, or to help you in interpreting your findings?

Phase IV - Analysis of Data

  • What can you learn from the data? What patterns, insights, and new understandings can you find?

Phase V - Plan for Future Action

  • What will you do differently in your classroom as a result of this study?
  • What might you recommend to others and how will you write what you have learned so that the findings will be useful to you and to others?
