Action Research

Ernest T. Stringer's guide treats research as something carried out with the people it concerns, not on them. Community-based action research invites those once known as research subjects to take an active role, and its aim is a practical result that bears on participants' daily lives or working conditions. Stringer offers a set of practical tools to help researchers move through each stage of the process. This second edition presents a straightforward yet effective model for undertaking action research, built around the Look, Think, Act framework.
