`[This book] has definitely aided my understanding of the processes
involved in taking a critical stance and would enable me to pick
out and maybe even teach the different facets of critical thinking.
It has also developed my knowledge in the field of language and
literacy education' - British Journal of Educational Studies
Following other volumes in the Learning to Read Critically series,
Learning to Read Critically in Language and Literacy aims to
develop skills of critical analysis and research design. It
presents a series of examples of `best practice' in language and
literacy education research at a time when literacy development and
learning through language are key policy issues. This book is an
overview of issues in Language and Literacy Education research, as
well as a guide to appropriate research methods, and how to do a
literature survey. Leading researchers present a research project,
together with their gloss on why they did it that way; what they
found, or did not find, and why the research worked or in some
cases did not work. The book is intended as a reference and
teaching text for taught postgraduate courses in the area of
language and literacy. This series, edited by Mike Wallace,
supports research-based teaching on masters and taught doctorate
courses in the humanities and social sciences fields of enquiry.
Each book is a 'three in one' text designed to assist advanced
course tutors and dissertation supervisors with key research-based
teaching tasks and aims to: * develop students' critical
understanding of research literature * increase students'
appreciation of what can be achieved in small-scale investigations
similar to those which they undertake for their dissertation *
present students with major findings, generalisations and concepts
connected to their particular field.
