Beskrivning

The issue of methodology is a fundamental concern for all who engage in educational research. Presenting a series of methodological dialogues between eminent education researchers including Michael Apple, Gert Biesta, Penny Enslin, John Hattie, Nel Noddings, Michael Peters, Richard Pring and Paul Smeyers, this book explores the ways in which they have chosen and developed research methods to style their investigations and frame their arguments. These dialogues address the specialized and technical aspects of conducting educational research, conceptualize the relationship between methodology and theory, and provide in-depth discussion of concerns including falsifiability, openness, interpretation and researcher judgement. Foregrounding the researchers’ first-hand experience and knowledge, this book will provide future and current researchers with a deeper comprehension of the place of theory in education research. An illuminating resource for undergraduate and postgraduate researchers alike, Theory and Philosophy in Education Research confronts the intricate complexities of conducting education research in a highly engaging and accessible way.

This volume brings together a set of conversations between the editors and some of the world’s leading educational thinkers about issues that are not only philosophical but also practical. Each of these thinkers is challenged to clarify the ways in which they conceptualize the relationship between theory and research, the empirical and the normative, and theory and practice. What emerges from these conversations are insights that are perceptive, thoughtful and engaging, and also incredibly helpful to early career and established scholars alike.Fazal Rizvi, University of Melbourne, Australia, and University of Illinois, USATheory and Philosophy in Education Research: Methodological Dialogues is ideal reading for new education researchers - and those who are not so new. The dialogic structure provides an innovative scaffold into further reading about theory and research.
