Abstract
In the previous chapter, we discussed how to identify an area of focus and develop research questions to guide your project. After identifying an area of focus, it was suggested that you engage in the process of reconnaissance; that is, exploring the topic in relation to your own beliefs and values, and interrogating the literature to find out what others know about your topic. After these initial steps in the action research process are completed, you are ready to create a plan of action to guide implementation. By developing a plan, you are more likely to move forward with your research in a systematic manner.
