Action research has long been the research method used in education and  in many organizations for the purpose improving the art of teaching and  leading. However, there are those that strongly criticize this research  method.
Proponents of traditional research methods argue that the data  that is collected in action research is not reliable and does not yield  valid results in part, because of possible research bias (Mckay &  Marshall, 2001).
Initial Post: Read the articles from Fitchman-Dana  (n.d) and Eikeland (2003) and explain in your post how action research  will benefit your setting/organization by granting teachers and other  leaders the ability to identify and solve their own problems.
Consider,  too, the arguments opposing the use of action research as a validated  research methodology.
The second article is a controversial narrative  where the author responds to a previous writing which has highlighted  the reasons that action research is not a viable research method.
Post  your summary of the importance of action research as depicted in these  articles and what points resonate during the implementation of your  research.
