Teachers as Researchers urges teachers - as both producers and
consumers of knowledge - to engage in the debate about educational
research by undertaking meaningful research themselves. Teachers
are being encouraged to carry out research in order to improve
their effectiveness in the classroom, but this book suggests that
they also reflect on and challenge the reductionist and technicist
methods that promote a 'top down' system of education. It argues
that only by engaging in complex, critical research will teachers
rediscover their professional status, empower their practice in the
classroom and improve the quality of education for their pupils.
Now re-released to introduce this classic guide for teachers, the
new edition of Teachers as Researchers now also includes an
introductory chapter by Shirley R. Steinberg that sets the book
within the context of both the subject and the historical
perspective. In addition, she also provides information on some key
writing that extends the bibliography of this influential book
thereby bringing the material fully up to date with current
research. Postgraduate students of education and experienced
teachers will find much to inspire and encourage them in this
definitive book.
