The educational world is increasingly dominated by 'network
rhetoric'; not only are teachers and learners seen as participants
in networks, the availability of low-cost electronic devices,
collaborative environments and new forms of data 'born digital'
have changed the nature of education research. How can researchers
and research-informed practitioners best engage in and with
networks and develop effective networking practices? How might
networks and networking be conceptualized in order to frame and
support their work in and on networks? How do networks relate to
existing organizational forms and how might new networking
practices emerge? This book draws on extensive research into
educational research networks in schools, colleges and informal
education settings to explore these questions. Carmichael combines
theoretical insights into networks from different disciplinary
backgrounds and awareness of technological developments, with the
accounts of teachers, researchers, and technologists. He considers
how educational research as a field is changing, how individual and
collective research capacities might develop, identifies new
research approaches and discusses the emerging role of the
'researcher-networker'.
