In order to make the necessary changes needed for better research capacity development depended on my ability to question and reflect on my previous practices and experiences, and ultimately, having learned from such experiences and self-reflections, I could be able to improve the way I ought to do my work. From my experiences, I may now be able to capacitate more academics to improve what they are supposed to be doing to improve their own practices. Self-reflection is the process of stepping back from my previous experiences to process what the experience means, with a view to planning further actions for change. In the context of this study, Action Research Methodology is definitely the right choice when seeking ways in which I could be able to facilitate research capacity development by transforming the quality of research related-activities, thereby enhancing institutional research productivity and the production of high level skills needed to advance the objectives of any academic institution or a university.
