This book celebrates the rights of the child, through including
student voice in educational matters that affect them directly. It
focuses on the experiences of children and young people and
explores how our educational policies, practices and research
endeavours enable educators to help young people tell their own
stories. The respective chapters illustrate how listening to young
people can help them attain new positions of power, even though
doing so often creates discomfort and requires a radical change on
the part of the adult establishment. Further, the book challenges
researchers, teachers and practitioners to reconsider how students
are involved in research and policy agendas, and to what extent
radical collegiality can create fundamental and positive changes in
the lives of these learners. In recent decades, greater attention
has been paid across policy, practice and research discourses to
involving children more meaningfully and actively in decisions
about their participation in both formal and informal educational
settings. The book's goal is to illustrate how researchers have
systematically involved students in the pursuit of a richer
understanding of educational experiences, policy and practice
through the eyes and ears of young people, and through their own
cultural lens.
