Your action research paper will comprise the following:
- Introduction that provides the context of the study in detail (Do not type ‘introduction’ as a heading!-but you need headings and subheadings for every other section)
- Statement and explanation of research question and hypothesis
- Rationale for the study that explains why you were interested in this research in relation to your own teaching and/or learning experiences
- Review of literature that synthesizes and discusses literature in relation to your research topic. Discuss a minimum of 5 scholarly articles and all relevant course readings
- Detailed discussion of methods for data collection. Explain how data were collected, from whom, and timeline. Include original samples for all data collection materials
- Detailed discussion of data analysis methods. Explain how data were
- organized, categorized, and analyzed. Remember to triangulate!
- Consideration of all relevant ethical concerns and how you addressed
- them
- Consideration of limitations of the study and how you addressed them. The limitations of the study are those characteristics of design or methodology that impacted or influenced the interpretation of the findings from your research. They are the constraints on generalizability, applications to practice, and/or utility of findings that are the result of the ways in which you initially chose to design the study or the method used to establish internal and external validity or the result of unanticipated challenges that emerged during the study.
- Conclusion that provides your thoughts about how you think your study might help your teaching and other education situations more generally, and potential further areas of study for the next action research cycle
- Bibliography in proper APA formatting (Bibliography comes before the Appendices)
- Inclusion of appendices with samples of all data collection materials (e.g. surveys, interview questions, etc.) and permission forms
