Abstract: Enhancing early childhood learning skills is an important process that requires skilled teachers. Classroom action research is a major tool for analyzing, designing, and evaluating learning activities for developing early childhood learning. Learning together, concept mapping, professional learning community are integrated to improve teacher's skills. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the conditions and needs in conducting classroom action research and to develop abilities in classroom research practice through the implementation of integrated learning of early childhood teachers. Questionnaires are utilized to assess the conditions and needs. Knowledge based quizzes in classroom action research and abilities to develop classroom action research proposals and reports are also evaluated. The finding indicated that those teachers possessed the ability to analyze individual learners and provide proper solutions. Knowledge of classroom action research using the integrated learning process of those teachers is very high at 77.41%. The average score for their ability to develop classroom action research proposals is 3.94, and for developing reports is 4.05. It can be concluded that three main techniques of integrated learning can enhance the ability in research classroom practice of early childhood teachers.
