Research influences teaching and teaching influences research. It give rise to reaffirm convictions, discussions, raise new questions and challenge assumptions in order to disclose the complex nature of teaching and learning process. It helps teachers in understanding the work ,its importance, short and long-term implications of the work and rationale for decisions and actions taken which proves helpful in building a repertoire to deal with the unexpected problems and make improvement. Teachers are always told to use “researched-based strategies. Teacher as a researcher does research either in collaboration with other experienced researcher or independently to achieve the actual objective of writing and publishing a report. In contrast, research based thinking is to use research competencies for better teaching and learning experience and more effective educational decisions . The above described way of research by teacher is more like action research and is near to qualitative research. An important tool in the hand of teachers, administrative staff and stakeholder to make effective changes in school environment is undoubtedly action research. Practitioners who are busy in action research are always motivated to "examine the dynamics of their classrooms, ponder the actions and interactions of students, validate and challenge existing practices, and take risks in the process" because a reflective and professional stance is required.
