A flow chart is a diagram that depicts the operations and motions of a complex system. Qualitative research flow charts serve as a road map to help us get from the start of our investigation to the conclusion of our findings. Action research, on the other hand, has a specific issue in a specific classroom, school, or school district, whereas traditional research covers a broad topic. The characteristics of both traditional and action research, as well as their impact on education, were discussed in this work.
