This accessible and practical book is a perfect quick guide for
postgraduate researchers in education. Looking at the
interdependence of teaching and research, the authors show that a
critical and analytical exploration of policies and practices is a
necessary part of what we mean by being a 'professional' in
education. Drawing on the authors' substantial experience of
teaching research skills at postgraduate level, as well as on their
own experiences as active researchers, the book will guide you
through: - discourse analysis - visual methods - textual research -
data collection and analysis This co-authored book is structured
around a range of methods applicable to educational research and
appropriate for use by practitioners at all stages of their
professional development. It takes recognisable, 'real life'
scenarios as its starting point for each discussion of method, so
that readers are able to start from the known and familiar. As well
as exploring theoretical aspects of research method, each chapter
provides practical tasks and points for discussion and reflection.
These approaches, taken together, are designed to build confidence
and encourage reader engagement and enjoyment. Liz Atkins is a
lecturer and researcher in education at the University of
Huddersfield. Susan Wallace is Professor of Continuing Education at
