This course examines action research in an organizational setting. Students will explore action research as a process of deep inquiry into one’s practice in service of setting and achieving goals that align with values. Action research involves taking action or attempting change and collecting data to analyze and understand the action from the perspective of others and in relationship to intended outcomes. It is cyclic as the researcher moves through structured periods of thoughtful planning, taking action, and then collecting and analyzing evidence to identify outcomes produced by the action. The final step--critical reflection on what was learned--is used to create conceptual tools for planning of new action.
This course, the first in a two-course sequence, builds upon HLO 750 Foundations of Action Research with a deeper exploration of research design principles and methods used in action research. Students will be introduced to philosophical assumptions, key elements of the research process including review of literature and use of theory in research applications, and the importance of writing and ethics in scholarly inquiry. Students will learn about qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods approaches, their similarities and differences, and develop an understanding of the methods needed to design a rigorous action research project.
This course, the second in a two-course sequence, builds upon HLO 751 Research Methods and Design I, with a deeper exploration of research design principles and methods using an action research approach. By the completion of HLO 752 students will understand and properly utilize a framework for designing and conducting an action research project including constructing an effective introduction and research topic for study, identifying research questions, formulating hypotheses, and selecting methods and procedures for data collection, analysis, and interpretation appropriate for the action research topic.
HLO 760Introduction to the Action Research Dissertation3
This course focuses on the development of the doctoral dissertation proposal. Emphasis is placed on understanding and defining the logical relationship between elements in the proposal including the problem statement, conceptual/theoretical framework, literature review, research design, and methodology.
In this course, students prepare for their action research study by planning the process and obtaining necessary approvals and permissions to conduct research. A major purpose of planning activities is to establish a positive climate that engages all stakeholders. After designing a meaningful action research proposal, students identify stakeholder groups, identify key people, establish their role as the action researcher, set the agenda by informing people of their purpose, and ensure participants come to no harm as a result of their role in the study. After the Institutional Research Board’s (IRB) permission is granted, students will begin data collection.
This course focuses on the continuation of data collection, analyzing the data, developing a plan for action, implementing the plan, reflecting upon the plan, sharing the findings, and evaluating the quality of the action research study.
This course focuses on the final chapters of the action research doctoral dissertation with a presentation of the results/outcomes or findings and conclusions. Students will further develop and demonstrate the higher levels of understanding and skill needed to analyze and interpret data collected, draw meaningful conclusions in answer to the research questions, and propose solutions appropriate to the action research approach including implications for future policy and practice.
