The promise of action research.
Abstract
This study examined the perceptions pre-service teachers hold about learning and conducting action research. Results indicate that pre-service teachers can learn the process, believe that learning the process improves their thinking skills, and believe action research is applicable to their future. Fewer students felt that it helped them develop professionally or that it opened communication between them and their mentors. Students did not believe that their mentors cared or were interested in learning about action research.
