Synopsis

In concluding the discussion on action research, it is important to realize that action research is a methodology which brings out professionalism in our work as well as day-to-day life activities. The most significant feature of this approach is to bring out changes in either the methods, inputs, interpersonal interactions, or a combination of these factors to reach the defined objectives. In order to bring out change, it 1s essential that the practitioner must be dissatisfied with the present conditions and is willing to undertake responsibilities to bring out change in the system.
Thus, teachers as action researchers are concerned to improve a situation through active intervention and in collaboration with the parties involved. In this process they assume the role of reflective practitioners which empower them in bringing out improvement in the education system.
The methods by which man from the earlier times sought answers to his problems can be classified under the following categories: (1) authority, (2) tradition, (3) experience, (4) deductive reasoning, (5) inductive reasoning, and (6) scientific method. Appeal to authority and seeking its advice was a well-established method of solving problems even in the earliest civilizations. We can find examples of reliance upon authority for truth, particularly during the ancient times, when floods, famines, or disease terrified man. Aristotle developed the syllogism, which can be described as a thinking process in which one proceeds from general to specific statements by deductive reasoning.
