Introspection Dr. Russel Lawrie
[object Object],Action research into our own teaching practice is an important source of learning for the group.  Here, I intend to describe the nature of “action research”, and describe its use in the on-going development and evaluation of a new teaching module. I hope to show that an action research approach to teaching can be used to improve teaching and learning practice.

[object Object],"Through systematic, controlled action research, higher education teachers can become more professional, more interested in pedagogical aspects of higher education and more motivated to integrate their research and teaching interests in a holistic way. This, in turn, can lead to greater job satisfaction, better academic programmes, improvement of student learning and practitioner’s insights and contributions to the advancement of knowledge in higher education."
