Philosophy and Theory in Educational Research: Writing in the
margin explores the practices of reading and writing in educational
philosophy and theory. Showing that there is no 'right way' to
approach research in educational philosophy, but illustrating its
possibilities, this text invites an engagement with philosophy as a
possibility - and opening possibilities - for educational research.
Drawing on their own research and theoretical and philosophical
sources, the authors investigate the important issue of what it
means to read and write when there is no prescribed structure.
Innovative in its contribution to the literature, this edited
volume enlightens readers in three ways. The volume focuses on the
practices of reading and writing that are central to research in
educational philosophy, suggesting that these practices constitute
the research, rather than simply reporting it. It is not a
prescriptive guide and should not be read procedurally. Rather, it
is intended to illustrate the possibilities for this kind of
research, and to suggest starting points for those pursuing
research projects. Finally, attention is given to the ways in which
conducting educational philosophy can be educative in itself, both
to the researcher in writing it, and to its audience in reading it.
With contributions from international scholars in the field of
educational philosophy, this book is a valuable guide for
practitioner-researchers, taught postgraduate and doctoral
students, and early career researchers in university education
departments. Academic staff teaching research methods and seeking
to introduce their students to philosophy-as-research without
wishing to offer a prescriptive 'how to' guide will also find this
book of particular interest.
