This book is for all those taking the UK's new Masters in Teaching and Learning program. The contents reflect the units of this new qualification, building on Initial Teacher Training, deepening and broadening professional understanding and skills while addressing individual teacher needs. Chapters cover core topics, such as developing pedagogy, assessment for learning, special educational needs, and behavior. The book provides invaluable support for beginning teachers as they manage their professionally based, postgraduate learning, including guidance on critical thinking, reflective practice, and research skills. The book is clearly linked to the UK's newly developed framework of Professional Standards for Teachers.
'This structured and accessible book, with excellent case studies,
will give confidence to anyone embarking on an action research
project' 'Masterly in its lucidity, this text contextualises Action
Research in the fiedl of Education Practice; and is therefore a
valuable resource in both professional learning and improved
professional practice' 'An engaging, clearly written, and helpfully structured
articulation of how AR can be implemented and practised in order to
make a difference within educational contexts' 'Will assist practitioner researchers to develop a profound and
critical understanding of this approach' This hands-on and user-friendly book uses illustrative case studies to demonstrate and explore the potential for change in real social situations. This book seeks to assert the academic integrity of action research and to de-mystify the process. Each chapter includes: - a 'how to' section based on concrete examples and dilemmas - commentary that relates examples to the broader field - a discussion of the underlying theoretical approach - discussion and exploration of quality issues - discussion of ethical and pragmatic decision-making The mix of theoretical grounding and focus on real issues will be of benefit to Master's level or advanced undergraduate students on Education and Research Methods courses or those undertaking Action Research as part of professional development activities. Mary McAteer is Director of the Mathematics Specialist Teacher (MaST) programme at Edge Hill University Research Methods in Education series: Each book in this series maps the territory of a key research approach or topic in order to help readers progress from beginner to advanced researcher. Each book aims to provide a definitive, market-leading overview and to present a blend of theory and practice with a critical edge.
