A thought-experiment approach is suggested for the purposes of fitting into a teacher-preparation syllabus a vivid enough introduction to the action-research cycle for teacher candidates to internalize the process and be able to utilize it to continually improve their teaching practices. The author describes and analyzes his own effort to teach the action-research process in two sections of an introductory course in special education within the undergraduate teacher education program at an institution of higher education in western Kansas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Bruce Scott Ed D.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1985314029\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781985314023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 42\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.10d","brand":"Robert Bruce Scott Ed D.","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43940643635455,"sku":"9781985314023","price":6.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1730fbc1-1355-42e3-88b9-6fdd7be8b396.jpg?v=1681448371","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/learning-to-do-action-research-robert-bruce-scott-ed-d-9781985314023","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
