Abstract:
This study aimed to analyze the Bachelor of Secondary Education major in English’s action researches. It specifically sought to determine the research topics, problems, approaches, methods, designs, strategies and salient findings of the BSE action researches; to identify research gaps for future research endeavors; and to suggest research agenda for the BSE English program. It utilized systematic literature review as its research design and a repertory grid as its research instrument. Findings reveal that the research topics of the reviewed action researches mainly focused on pronunciation and speaking skills, reading comprehension, vocabulary skills, semantic skills, morphological ability, inferencing skills, sentence construction ability, oral reading fluency, and S-V Agreements skills. These studies consistently used one group pretest and posttest design, employed traditional and novel instructional strategies for interventions and constantly determined the level of language skills of the respondents, significant difference of pretest and post test score and the effectiveness of the chosen teaching strategies. It is recommended that future researchers may try other language skills to be studied through other approaches like qualitative approach, mixed method, and experimental method.
Keywords: systematic literature review, action research, research gaps, research agenda, research framework
