Jane Jones and a supporting line up of authors outline why student teachers are well placed to undertake Action Research.
The complexities of the classroom and of teaching and learning lend themselves readily to teacher research activity. Teachers, as inquisitive, questioning professionals are natural researchers and have a rich terrain in which to plant seeds of enquiry and research. Student teachers are especially well placed to undertake teacher research projects given the exploratory nature of their training and that there is time embedded into the training course to observe, reflect critically and to undertake research.
