Last paragraph of the article:
"Since action research is as much about creating a better life within more effective and just social contexts as it is about discovering true facts and theories, it should not be surprising that it has flourished in Latin America, Northern Europe, India, and Australia as much or more than within university scholarship in the US."

[edit] Merger
There are many kinds of action research, I think bringing them to the action research page would make more sense.--Kenneth M Burke 01:14, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
I think that video method --the third paragraph of the intro doesn't really fit there. I want to read more about it to see if there is a theory implied. If so it could be moved to the next section. Alternately, we might want to add a section on the way in which technology can support action research. --mriel 07:26, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
Opposed. PAR has its own body of literature and support that go far beyond action research. Each article needs to exist on its own. • Freechild'sup? 15:34, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] participatory video
I have re written and renamed this section, mainly a cut and paste from the main Participatory Video page, to highlight the participatory aspect of the process. the previous version read as though don snowden made the video, rather than facilitated the islanders to make their own video. I know little about PV or its relative importance for inclusion in this article.WotherspoonSmith 12:42, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
