- Action research and teacher training challenges in Polytechnic Higher EducationPublication . Cardoso, Ana PaulaAction research is a methodological approach often used in initial and continuous teacher training courses, namely at polytechnic schools. For this reason we try to inquire: "To what extent is action research a useful methodology in training teachers in polytechnic higher education?" The analysis of one’s own experience of training in two training courses in the Viseu Higher School of Education, which took place from 2001-2006, as well the analysis of final research work developed allow us to conclude, among other aspects, that this methodology has showed to be attractive to many teachers and represents a contribution to a greater openness to change and educational innovation. Not intending to generalize these data beyond the context under analysis, we consider that they suggest the usefulness of action research in teacher training at the level of higher education and thus recommend the use of this methodological strategy.
