Researching Education from the Inside Investigations from within
Produktdetaljer
<p>"I like the general thrust of what is proposed very much and think it would be very useful for both university teachers, final year undergraduate students and graduate students. We need more work of this nature which includes plenty of diverse exemplars. There is certainly a need for books like this as Masters of Education, MA in Education and EdD programmes begin to proliferate. PhD students would also benefit from a work like this. What is needed to complement standard methodology texts which give the ‘textbook’ way of proceeding are works which tease out the nuances of different approaches. Such books are now becoming available, especially as works conceptualised to illustrate different research approaches from a paradigms perspective. They need to be supplemented by books which portray the practical realities of researchers’ experiences and their struggles. This book would be one very useful addition in this regard… The editors are all internationally recognised scholars in the field of qualitative research methodology, as are some of the individual contributors. Others I cannot comment on but I have a very high regard indeed for the scholarship of the editors and trust their judgement in selection of participants… I certainly recommend that you publish the book and believe it will be very marketable across regions."
