This e-Guide is designed to support practitioners (e.g. teachers, trainers, classroom assistants, assessors) in the post-16 education and training sector to design and undertake ‘multimodal’ action research and reporting. It will also be useful if you are interested in any kind of participatory or collaborative action research, whatever context you are researching in. The guide aims to present a range of multimodal research and reporting approaches, including written text, multi-media, sound and graphics and explore how they could form part of action research projects.

The guide is split into two main sections after the introduction:

1. Multimodal research and reporting approaches
2. Key considerations when designing an action research report

Gave me more confidence in what I was doing.
