Focus
Research focuses on needs specifications, classrooms, individuals or
groups, institution or management, learning styles, teaching
behaviours, language, programmes or materials, preparing for action,
recording change. These aspects determine what research will be
chosen by reseachers.
Goals
Every research have a goals that will be reached during research.
These goals are change and innovation, personal and institutional
development, appraisal, knowledge and understanding, public and
disseminated, and private.
Location
Attitudes
The attitudes in research are positive and negative in a teachers ,
institutions, ministries, learners that can affect in your research.
Riordan (quoted in
Thus different research methods serve different kinds of problems and different purposes.
However, that is not purely relativist position, for there are general criteria. How do the various
research traditions compare? Hopkins view is as follows (1993: 171) :
Criteria such as validity, reliability, generalizability, are necessary if teacher-researchers
are to escape the sentimental anecdote that often replaces statistical research designs in
education, and gives teacher-research such a bad name. Enquiry, self-monitoring, and
teacher-research need to establish standards and criteria that are applicable to their area
of activity, rather than assume (and then reject) criteria designed for different problems.
These features help the researcher to determine what research is going to be, the features
determine the design and methodology of the research, and concerning the application to other
situations. As Hopkins view is as follows Criteria are necessary if teacher-researchers are to
escape the sentimental anecdote that often replaces statistical research designs in education, and
gives teacher-research such a bad name. However, given our earlier descriptions of different,
even competing paradigms, it should be clear that each criterion is open to different possible
interpretations, and this we have tried to draw out in the course of the discussion.
is typically taught in the schools as a grammatical system. She has managed to get a scholarship
for PhD to research this issue in depth. Her plans include an investigation of what other
researchers have found, the development of instruments to measure reading efficiency in two
languages, and an analysis of pedagogic practice.
These teachers have different choices to test their ideas and develop their own research
programmes, and how those research activities relate to their normal professional lives. The point
was made that just as different groups have different ideas of theory. So they have different
attitudes to desirable degree of precision in the initial research questions.

A principle is a law in a research that observed in nature or the way that system is constructed..
Any research should be systematic, organized , and objective. Method is the way to support the
research to be a good or bad research. While, technique is used in performing research
operations such as making observations, recording data, techniques of processing data and the
like.
Researcher can choose data collection techniques that will be dependent upon practical
considerations. Each data has a advantages and disadvantages and it will depend on many
factors.
Observation is used to collect data in research. The data could be in checklist and written
criteria, audios and video recordings, and notes. There are three key parameters that need to be
clarified in observation, such as the observers, the goals, and the procedures. Furthermore,
systematizing observations divided into preliminaries and systematize. The use of systematic
coding schedule is therefore very much an elaborated checklist approach. Checklist are used to
ensure that relevant steps are noticed and remembered, like a weeks shopping list or a pilots
landing checks; but since they thereby systematically reduce the raw data, interesting events in
that data that are not included on the checklist will not be noted.
