200 Action Research Project Work Topic

As final-year students in a College of Education, one of the important tasks you will do before completing school is action research. This is because every teacher is expected to know how to solve classroom problems in simple and practical ways.

What is Action Research?
Action research simply means looking at a problem in your own classroom, trying new strategies, and checking if they work. It is practical, simple, and made for teachers. Unlike other research, it is not about collecting data from outside — it is about finding solutions inside your own classroom.

To make it easier for you, we have prepared 200 action research project topics. They cover all the subjects in Basic 1–8, including English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, ICT, RME, Creative Arts, Career Technology, Agriculture, and even classroom issues.

Relax, take your time, and carefully go through all the topics. Select your preferred ones and modify them to suit your needs by adding the class name and the school name. Once that is done, your project topic will be complete and ready to use.

For example:

Guiding Basic 7 pupils of GH EDU PRO JHS to understand food groups by using practical demonstrations.

Remember, action research is not difficult. Start small, focus on one problem at a time, and use simple methods. As a future teacher, this will help you to make a real difference in the lives of your pupils.
