Multidisciplinary Approaches to Educational Research (eBook, ePUB)

Case Studies from Europe and the Developing World
Redaktion: Rizvi, Sadaf

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides an original perspective on a range of controversial issues in educational and social research through case studies of multi-disciplinary and mixed-method research involving children, teachers, schools and communities in Europe and the developing world. These case studies from researchers "across continents" and "across disciplines" explore a range of interesting issues, including the relevance of research approaches to very different national settings, and to the kinds of questions being asked; the barriers of language and culture between researcher and researched; articulating the thinking and feelings of very young children; the challenges of dealing with "partiality" of data, issues of identity, subjectivity and reflexivity; and transferring research approaches from one national setting to the problems posed in another.
