About Us

STAR Action Research Community (ARC) is led by eight professors of action research from two nations.  These professors, who teach action research courses, have met between ARNA conferences over the last few years to think about strategies, issues, and resources to support the teaching action research.

Within a distributed leadership framework and Learning Circle approach, the first phase focused on the creation of the STAR ARNA ARC website (2017-18).  The second phase has entailed the translation of the website into Spanish, the development of the ARNA-STAR ARC Newsletter (April 2019) and the construction of the STAR ARNA ARC Blog (April 2019).
