Democracy, Education and Research (eBook, ePUB)

The Struggle for Public Life

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Considering how practices and processes of research and education can create fundamental, radical social change, Democracy, Education and Research assesses the meaning of 'public impact' by rethinking what is meant by 'public' and how it is essential to the methodologies of education and research.

Focusing on empirical illustrations of the use of research and educational processes in contemporary and emergent forms of social organisation, this book:

• Covers the traditional forms to be found in education, health systems, community, business and public institutions, as well as emergent forms arising from innnovation in technologies.



• Explores the forms of learning and knowledge creation that take place across the everyday interactions in places of learning, communities or workplaces



• Discusses how learning and knowledge can be intentionally shaped by individuals and groups to effect social and political change



• Considers the research strategies required to forge new practices, new ways of working and living for a more socially just world

Including practical examples of research that has created real change, Democracy, Education and Research will be a vital resource to professional researchers in their roles as teachers, educators and activists as well as students of education, sociology, politics, cultural studies.
