Action research is simply what the name suggests. It is a way to actively work through problems, address weaknesses, and find ways to work towards strengthen them. Through the Lamar Principal program, I was able to put this practice to use, by constantly working through issues, and strengths/weaknesses to get to an end learning goal. With that in mind, I will employ the same amount of knowledge/interest in working through the Academic Partnership program in the Superintendent Certification route.
Action research is a very hands on way of taking the proverbial "Bull by the Horns", and mastering through active hands on activities. During the Principal program we were able to create internship logs, and actively work through issues, and processes, that have been very helpful in not only earning certification, but actually serving in an administrative role over the past year.
With that in mind, I feel that the idea of "Action Research" is a great way to get hands on experience in practice while working towards a goal. In this case it will be dealing with work towards Superintendent certification.
