please Read Chapter 2 “Overview of the Action Research Process” on pages 35-50 in the Mertler textbook (Action Research:  Improving Schools and Empowering Teachers (4th ed.).    on Chapter 2 (page 49 and50).  Answer the five questions as they pertain to Chapter 2 of the Mertler textbook:

1- Which of the nine steps in the action research process do you believe would be the most difficult to carry out?  Explain your answer.

2- Considering the process of action research as presented in the chapter, do you think it would be more feasible to conduct action research individually or in small groups?
Develop a list of advantages and a list of disadvantages for doing it either way.

3- Discuss what you see as possible benefits of communicating the results of action research studies with various educational audiences.

4-Suppose that students in your school are not achieving at the desired level in the area of mathematics.  Using the four-stage procedure for action research as presented in this chapter, briefly describe how you might systematically examine this problem.

5-Using the same scenario presented in number 4 above, outline a specific action research study you might conduct conforming yo the nine-step process as presented in this chapter.
