Abstract
Action research is a qualitative research method with several weaknesses
when it is used in Information Systems.
In order to improve action research in Information Systems, in this
paper we address these weaknesses with
consolidated results from the project management discipline. We
illustrate this proposal along two main aspects:
on one side, with a retrospective analysis of a set of problems reported
in a published case; and, on other side,
by discussing the relationship of our proposal with the
interdisciplinary work involved in an Information Systems
action research project
