Summary: | Teachers’ research capacity has long been considered an important component that contributes to their own professional development as well as teaching practice. Specifically, teaching effectiveness will be improved significantly when teaching is integrated with research activities (Healey, 2005).

These factors include non-collaborative school culture; limitations in teachers’ awareness, beliefs, skills and knowledge; limited resources; demotivators and economic factors. |
