Action research is a cyclical process of inquiry and improvement that is carried out by practitioners in order to improve their practice and the experiences of those they serve. The goal is to use data to identify problems, develop and implement solutions, and evaluate the effectiveness of those solutions. Action research can be used in any field, but it is particularly well-suited for education, healthcare, and social work.
