Abstract

Action research is useful not only in preparing future teachers but for all teachers to continue to
grow and develop as reflective practitioners. This article presents an overview of the components of action
research (selecting an issue, refining the research question, and undertaking data collection, analyzing multiple
forms of data, developing and implementing new instructional strategies, and making the research findings
public). An example of an action research project on giving feedback on student writing is used to illuminate
these steps.
