Upon doing my reading about the Action Research I have learn quite a bit. Starting with seeking out a change you would like to happen, Action Research helps you gain useful insight.
Action Research:

• Helps teachers gain better understanding of themselves and their teaching practices.
• Helps administrators  can use it to gain deeper insights into their practices.
• Administrators and teachers can focus on student achievement and support reflective practices.
• Provides an opportunities to work, discuss, and solve problems with other administrators and teachers.
• Gives administrator a voice of the people who work in the trenches of the school building on a daily basis, the teachers.
• Usually brings about change of some kind.
