Abstract	At present there is a global need to assume an inquiry stance to address problems to locate solutions, as complex problems surface in all walks of life. With new Health and Physical Education provincial curricula emerging in 2019, the province of Ontario (Canada) is also making inquiry a priority. Educators in Ontario are expected to lead students in inquiry efforts yet in order to do this requires teacher training that is authentic, appropriate and professional. The purpose of this study is to examine how aspects of Action Research (AR) can be used to enhance and improve teaching with its inquiry-based learning elements that complement the role of educators and students alike. Journaling in AR is an analysis mode that can help participants achieve certain resolutions within an educational landscape. AR can infuse and nurture teacher self-development within teacher training while improving interpersonal relationships and developing pedagogy via practical experiences. Teacher change through AR occurs within the interactions, experiences and professional development that seems to imbue teacher training. (As Provided).
