• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In this article, I list and summarise the most influential theorists for Action Research in Education. I focus on researching in a High School context to provide a backdrop. I also include a research title as a specific focus to explain Action Research in simple terms.

Title (STEM - example): Developing the interpretation skills of high school students - exploring data and charts - and managing a mini greenhouse using digital sensors and the IoT.

I use the above title - a research program of mine in 2023 and 2024 with aquaponics (aquarium in class with Microbits and Arduinos) - to illustrate and communicate action research theorists for education contexts. I have included two iterations during my research project.

Action research in education is a dynamic field that involves systematic inquiry conducted by educators to improve teaching and learning processes. While there are many influential theorists in this area, I'll focus on a few whose work can be particularly relevant in a high school context, especially when interpreting data and charts related to managing a greenhouse using digital sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT).

Autorenporträt

The author had an interesting and unique childhood. Not travelling abroad - as you would expect - but venturing into the fields, bushes, tools sheds and mysterious underground tunnels around his neighbourhood. His happy place was - and still is - tinkering with ideas, science, and new possibilities. Many times while cycling he will get new ideas; he brings the unexpected, the unique, the creative in a flurry on a page or in a sketch. To this day he dreams of vicious wars and sophisticated weaponry in an innocent child's scout cave. He loves diagrams, timelines, cross sections, sketches, and details of sinister and hidden concepts and ideas; always looking for a new mystery to decode and to encode. He investigates and explores extravagant thoughts which he includes in children's books, stories and articles; he loves to include philosopher's perspectives, articles, intriguing stories, and poetry in his writing. Academic and research work are also his forte. He always offers a simple but practical explanation within an engaging context. Not your ordinary thinker! A lifelong scholar and teacher.
