Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Action research is a type of research where the researcher takes an active role in implementing a change or intervention and then observes and evaluates the effects of that change. In this case, Quidera implemented a required assignment notebook and planner program and observed its effects on student homework completion, which fits the definition of action research. The other options, narrative research, experimental research, and ethnographical research, do not accurately describe Quidera's study.
