Explanation

The steps of classroom action research run Plan, Action, Observe, Reflect and Follow up.

Plan comes first, framing the problem and designing an intervention.

Action carries out the planned intervention in the classroom.

Observe gathers evidence on what happens during the action.

Reflect analyses the observations to judge the effect, and follow up decides the next cycle of improvement.

This cyclical model of plan, act, observe and reflect was framed by Kurt Lewin and developed by Kemmis and McTaggart.
