Drawing on a rich variety of participatory action research methods
including ethnographic observation, artefact collection, focus
groups, and interviews, this volume explores the transformational
potential of development programs which actively involve
marginalized groups. Foregrounding the experiences of women migrant
workers in Beirut, the text reveals how direct participation in
NGO-led, community programs and education empowers women to create
counter-cultural communities and spaces for learning and activism.
The text ultimately combines aspects of critical pedagogy, spatial
analysis, and Third World feminisms to propose a critical subaltern
praxis for research, development, and teaching. It will appeal to
scholars and researchers with interests in research methods in
education, migration, equality and human rights and the
anthropology of education.
This volume takes a critical look at teaching and learning English
across the globe. Its aim is to fill a gap in the literature
created by the omission of the voices of those engaged in the
everyday practice of teaching and learning English; those of
students, teachers, and specialists. Three unique characteristics
give this book broad appeal. They include its inclusion of the
perspectives and experiences of students and educators involved in
the everyday practice of English language teaching and learning its
inclusion of the experiences of students and educators in both core
and non-core English-speaking countries its basis on original,
qualitative studies conducted by scholars in different parts of the
world including Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas Of
particular interest to applied linguists, scholars from diverse
fields such as English as a Foreign/Second Language, English as an
International Language, anthropology and education, English
education, sociolinguistics, and bilingual education will also find
value in this book. Written in accessible language, it can be used
in such courses as Applied Linguistics, Second Language Classroom
Contexts, Bilingualism and Multilingualism, English Around the
World, Research Methodologies in Second Language Acquisition, and
Research in Second Language Pedagogical Contexts. In addition, by
focusing on presenting research experiences that adopt several
epistemological and theoretical approaches, the book provides
teachers of research with a great tool to examine varied
applications of qualitative methods, data collection, and analytic
techniques. Thus it could also be used for courses in Field
Research and Qualitative Methods.
