Abstract:
This work presents a case study about how action research (AR) has been conducted in developing a
real-life educational system. An explanation is given of the modified implementation of the classical AR
methodology, based on the requirements of a remote laboratory system developed for the vocational
training of students in higher education. This study reports a successful implementation of AR stages
which established for the development process of a remote laboratory system along with the design of
several research questions explored in each step of the system development process. It is believed that
the outcomes of the study will help AR implementers to organize their research objectives, more
appropriately, by addressing the organizational problems. The results of this study are also expected to
guide the AR implementers to better integrate their research in solving domain specific practical
problems
