11. What is action research?
• Action research is deliberate, solution-oriented investigation
that is group or personally owned and conducted. It is
characterized by spiraling cycles :
Problem identification,
Systematic data collection,
Reflection, analysis,
Data-driven action taken,
And, finally, problem redefinition.
The linking of the terms “action” and “research” highlights the
essential features of this method: trying out ideas in practice as
a means of increasing knowledge about or improving curriculum,
teaching, and learning .
(Kemmis & McTaggart, 1988)
12. Purpose of action research?
Action research is used for various
Purposes:
Curriculum development,
Professional development,
Systems planning,
Restructuring, and
as an Evaluative tool.
13. How can I use action research in my
classroom?
You can use it
• to chart the effects of implementation of a
curriculum or strategy,
• to study student learning and responses,
• or to profile individual students.
14. How does action research benefit students
in the classroom?
Action research can improve the teaching
and learning process by
reinforcing,
modifying,
or changing perceptions based on
informal data and nonsystematic
observations.
15. How does action research benefit
teachers?
• Teachers learn what it is that they are able to
influence
• and they make changes that produce results that show
change.
• The process provides the opportunity to work with
others
• and to learn from the sharing of ideas.

25. Develop a Timeline
This is the essence
of planning!
Anticipate where &
how your study will
take place.
Anticipate how long
each step will take.
Apply predicted time
frames to a
calendar.
26. Put the Action Plan into Action
Go for it!
The Fact -- I don’t just want to research
something-
I want to make a difference

34. METHODOLOGIES !
• Do not try to cover all attributes
during a single session!
• One observation tells you little,
but many short observations can
tell you a lot.
• This provides you with an
accurate indicator of students’
level of understanding.
• It also helps you to plan
instruction to meet specific
needs
35. Students’ views on Assignments
• Have more time to work on the structure
than an exam.
• There are too many of them.
36. Data Retrieval Charts
• DRC’s are visual organizers that are used to
help you or your students collect and organize
information
43. Conclusions
The telecommunication and teaching sectors
have to work together in developing national
LEARNING strategies
Successful services require commitment to
promote national strategies and facilitate capacity
building
Developing countries urgently need a strategic
document – Master Plan and a Roadmap

What and who are we talking about really when we
say “social inclusion?”
What are the effects of my understanding about
social inclusion for myself, children, parents,

The telecommunication and health care sectors have to work together in developing national e-Health strategies Successful e-Health services require more than just technology: Committed policymakers who promote national strategies and facilitate capacity building are essential for the e-Health system to work in practice. Developing countries can not speed up the implementation of badly needed eHealth services without close cooperation with telecom sector. Developing countries urgently need a strategic document – eHealth Master Plan ITU-D is ready to assist its Member State in strengthening their in e-Health capacity to increase the impact and effectiveness of their investment in this field.
