Teachers as Researchers – Improving Classroom Practice through Action Research
Деталі курсу
This self-study module is for you if you want to embark on a reflection of your teaching practices, innovate your practices, and analyze the effects of your innovation.
If this applies to you then this module can help you to become familiar with action research, a systematic process of inquiry into a self-identified teaching challenge to better understand its complex dynamics and to develop effective strategies to address the challenge. This module offers you an outline of the different steps of the action research process and provides you with a scaffold for developing your own action research plan.
In 2022 the School Education Gateway Teacher Academy and eTwinning piloted an extended format of this module with 50 participants to explore the challenges teachers face when implementing action research in their classrooms and to support them in a more personalized way to apply action research in practice. This self-study module is based on the experiences from this course and builds on the work of the 50 pilot teachers who implemented action research in their schools.
