Abstract

Much district educators dislike research, so they don't conduct it. Because of this, the researcher decided to investigate the causes. In response, this study evaluated Sta. district educators' research skills in Sta. Cruz, Zambales. The research was descriptive correlational. Specifically, a descriptive research approach was used to examine multiple factors. Furthermore, teachers and administrators were informed of the study's purpose and methods. The study used a validated self-administered questionnaire. Despite these efforts, some teachers cannot do classroom action research. The results show that some educators do not engage in school action research, some are unable to create clear, detailed, quantifiable, attainable, and goal-oriented objectives, and some are skeptical about its benefits and view it as difficult. Additionally, district teachers struggle to get action research books and in-text citations. For future improvements, research should include a broader range of teacher performance characteristics.
