Action Research is an effective process used by leaders to open the doors to solving problems and enhancing current situations. It allows you to make changes in current plans and it helps you cultivate an environment of constant growth. It also allows you to work many professionals to gain insight or expertise that you may not have. As a leader, you should be able to reflect upon your current position or the campuses current state, and ask questions to make improvements.
As a teacher and future administrative leader, I plan to use action research as my main avenue to improve the effectiveness of my school. I want to be able to be the leader that makes my staff and faculty comfortable with communicating, sharing, learning, and questioning their effectiveness. I want them to constantly stay head of the students, and be life-long learners. Many times teachers feel they know all about their field of study and shut themselves out from everyone else on campus and they do the same thing repeatedly, but they should instead feel the drive to learn something new to up the sense of urgency in our educational world. I want to create a safety net of knowledge that is made up faculty, staff, and the community.
