Learning Episode 2:

Embedding Action Research for Reflective Teaching

PARTICIPATE AND ASSISST

You must have experienced in your past subjects, doing some activities or some activities or
accomplishing tasks similar to an action research. These are activities that required you to do
Reflection and Make Action or the other way around. Schon (1987) distinguishes Reflection in Action
or Reflection on Action as two different things.

Perhaps your mentor teacher has already done an action Research. Now is the opportunity
for you to participate and assist in ways that you are capable of doing.

Here is what you will do.

Making a List of Completed Action Research Titles by Teachers in the Field

1. Make a library or on-line search of the different Completed Action Research Titles
Conducted by Teachers.
2. Enter the list in the matrix similar to the one below.
3. Submit your list of five (5) Titles of Completed Action Research Studies to your mentor as
reference.

situations and that the teacher has a responsibility of finding solution for everyday problem in
school, hence teachers should do action research. This is an exciting part of being a teacher, a
problem solver!

What five problems have you identified from the words that you have encircled? Make a
statement. Write in the space below.

The problem I identified are:

1.

Excellent! Let us see how we can assist and learn at the same time.

Suppose, the problem you have spotted is: COMPREHENSION

How can you assist your mentor, after knowing that the learners have difficulty in
comprehension?

Make a Choice for your ACTION.

A. Conduct a tutorial lesson.


B. Show video lessons to help enhance comprehension.
C. Make a learning task to develop comprehension.

Suppose you chose letter A. conduct a Tutorial. So you have identified the SOLUTION that
matches the PROBLEM which is Difficulty in Comprehension.

The Problem is: The Action is:

Difficulty in
Conduct a Tutorial
Comprehension of
Can you also choose letter B: Show video lesson as a SOLUTION for the same PROBLEM?
Explain

The Problem is: The Action is:

Difficulty in
Show video lessons
Comprehension of

What about letter C as a SOLUTION to the same PROBLEM? Why?

The Problem is: The Action is:

Difficulty in Make learning tasks to

Interesting, isn’t it? Now, you can assist your mentor by identifying observed problems in the class
and suggest actions to be done.

NOTICE

What have you noticed of the problem identified above? Can there be more than one
solution to the problem? Explain.

A creative and innovative teacher can find one or more than one solution or more answer to
the same problem. Each solution matches with the problem. The more solutions identified to choose
from, the better for an action researcher.

ANALYZE

Let us try to look into the following scenarios in the daily life of a teacher. Thisscenario might
be to the class you have observed and noticed.

Scenario A:

Miss Fely is a grade four teacher in a typical elementary school. She has forty learnersin her
class. One half of them cannot classify animals into vertebrates and invertebrates. Shehas
been repeating the same science lesson for two weeks, yet no progress was observed.This
situation has been bothering Miss Fely.
