Reflective Development and Developmental Research: Is There A Future for Action Research as A Research Strategy in German-Speaking Countries?
Authors: Altrichter Herbert, Posch Peter
In this paper, the authors want to clarify their concept of action research and to provide arguments for the need to re-evaluate the research potential of this approach. The authors illustrate the arguments by an analysis of one of the most successful in-service education of teachers' courses in Austria, which is based on action research. The paper ends with a theoretical discussion of frequent objections against action research in the German research tradition.
