The document discusses mixed methods research, which combines quantitative and qualitative data to better understand research problems, and outlines key aspects of mixed methods designs such as priority given to different data types, sequencing of collection, and notation systems. It also covers action research, which aims to address practical issues through collaboration between researchers and participants in a dynamic, spiraling process of reflection, data collection, and action. The steps of conducting mixed methods and action research studies are provided.
