The importance of the teaching and learning of social research
methods is increasingly recognised by research councils and policy
bodies as crucial to the drive to increase capacity amongst the
research community. The need for greater scholarly engagement with
how research methods are taught and learnt is also driven by the
realisation that epistemological and methodological developments
have not been accompanied by a pedagogical literature or culture.
Training initiatives need this pedagogic input if they are to
realise the educational aspirations for methodologically skilled
and competent researchers, able to apply, adapt and reflect on a
range of high-level research methods and approaches. The
contributors to this collection have fully engaged with this need
to develop and share pedagogical knowledge in relation to the
teaching of research methods. Together they span qualitative,
quantitative and mixed methods, a range of disciplinary and
national contexts, and face-to-face and blended teaching and
learning. Through detailed examples, the collection addresses how
best teaching practices develop in response to distinctive
challenges that will resonate with readers; in so doing it will
inspire and inform their own development. This book was originally
published as a special issue of the International Journal of Social
Research Methodology.
