Аннотация

INNOTeach is a joint extension project between the University of Southeastern Philippines and the Department of Education-Davao City. This paper aimed to disclose the INNOTeach way of writing-up classroom-based action researches by the teachers. It discussed the progress and highlights of the project while revealing the behavioral impressions of the teacher participants. It is anchored on Kurt Lewin’s theory emphasizing that action researches are made to solve social problems. Narrative-qualitative research was employed in this paper. Remarkably, the INNOTEach way of writing-up an action research is simply a reflective writing exercise using customized worksheets and templates. This revealed further that the series of trainings produced organics trainers and research proposals approved by the office of the Schools Division Superintendent of Davao City. One implemented research became an entry of DepEd-Region XI to the national paper contest; while the project itself has already been given awards in conferences. Finally, this paper revealed that the INNOTeach way of doing action research enabled the teachers to become reflective of their work, being passionate for research, and not anymore intimidated seeing children with problems. This leads to the conclusion that no matter how difficult a thing is, when it is done reflectively, it can produce new things. To adopt the INNOTeach way of doing things is highly recommended at all levels of education.
