Resumen de An Action Research Report: Improving Pre-Laboratory Preparation of First-Year University Chemistry Students
Kenneth S. Lyle, William R. Robinson
Action research is the most informal of the naturalistic research methods. Its goal is not to test the truth or falsity of a hypothesis. Instead, action research is directed at developing descriptions of existing situations that can be used to evaluate and modify those situations. The work of Rolnick, Zwane, Staskun, Lotz, and Green () described here is an example of the use of action research in evaluating and improving students' pre-laboratory preparation in a first-year chemistry course at a university in South Africa.
