This is a booklet describing the key features of an action research approach to professional development for educators working in the further education sector
The principal focus is on explaining the underlying values of action research which makes it a potential means of promoting continuing professional development and learning for educators working in FE, and exploring a mechanism for conducting it in this context
The brochure's aim is to advocate for action research as a form of CPDL, and to pose questions practitioners can and should ask themselves in order to use it for that purpose effectively. The brochure notes the importance of having clear goals for learning, gathering evidence to show the impact being made, and modifying practice in the light of the process
