“The advantages of using quantitative and qualitative methods in action research studies have long been the focus of attention for action and mixed methods researchers. The increasing utilization of mixed methods and as a research approach promoted further discussions of the connection between mixed methods and action research. A number of features that action research and mixed methods share make the integration of the two approaches justifiable and realistic”. This chapter is taken from Mixed Methods Applications in Action Research, which provides readers with the information they need to design and conduct a mixed methods action research (MMAR) study in a practical and pragmatic manner.
