Week 2 of action research

I learned that action research is a big part of their success in schools. School leader use it almost every day. They look at data extensively. The data is the driving forces for their research and success of the students. They ask critical thinking question of the teachers and administrators. They think that practical use of action research for the school and students is more important than more traditional research that cannot be used in the school or classroom. I discovered from the chapter The Passion That Drive Your Journey what the nine major wonderings of many school leaders are; staff development, curriculum development, individual teacher(s), individual student(s), school culture/community, leadership, management, school performance and social justice or equity issues. I found out how important they are in schools and examples of how administrators used them.
