Becoming a Successful Early Career Researcher

Adrian Richard Eley, Jerry Wellington, Stephanie Pitts and Catherine Biggs, all at University of Sheffield, UK
Not that long ago there were fairly clear divisions between researchers at different stages throughout their career however, more recently the term Early Career Researcher (ECR) has been introduced partly as a response to their growing importance which has been reflected by their increased respect and status shown by national, international and funding bodies There are several common features of an ECRs job including the need to establish a professional identity and develop into an independent researcher, competing for grants and increasing ones output of research publications; this book offers proven practical advice to help ECRs kick-start a successful academic career With advice on: choosing research topics, making best use of a Research Supervisor/Mentor, developing your research writing, getting published: journals and books, writing a research grant/fellowship, becoming a supervisor, becoming a teacher, and developing your career

Focus Groups
From Structured Interviews to Collective Conversations
George Kamberelis, University of Wyoming, USA and Greg Dimitriadis, SUNY Buffalo, USA
Focus Groups is a conceptual and practical introduction to focus groups As the title indicates, focus groups traditionally encompass a wide range of discursive practices These span from formal structured interviews with particular people assembled around clearly delimited topics to less formal, open-ended conversations with large and small groups that can unfold in myriad and unpredictable ways Additionally, focus groups can and have served many overlapping purposes from the pedagogical, to the political, to the traditionally empirical In this book, focus groups are systematically explored; not as an extension or elaboration of interview work alone, but as its own specific research method with its own particular affordances This book comprehensively explores: the nature of focus groups, politic and activist uses of focus groups, practical ways to run a successful focus group, effective analysis of focus group data, and contemporary threats to focus groups

Understanding Research
Coping with the Quantitative Qualitative Divide
M.I. Franklin, Goldsmiths College, University of London, UK
Successfully completing a research project is a major milestone in most university degrees, and the cornerstone of an academic career This textbook is an accessible, real-time guide to conducting academic research in international and cross-cultural settings This text: explores the decision making process at all points of a research project and the implications of these decisions in the longer term; outlines the practical and philosophical conundrums around specific techniques for gathering and analysing data; examines moments of disconnect, overlap, and potentially mutual benefit for researchers working at different points along the quantitative-qualitative divide that underscores popular and scholarly debates about the relevance of academic research; and explains how to cope with a divide that is both real and imagined; in all its experiential, institutional, and conceptual variations
Beginning Interpretative Inquiry

A Step-by-Step Approach to Research and Evaluation
Richard E. Morehouse, Viterbo University, Wisconsin, USA

Beginning Interpretive Inquiry importantly makes the distinction between the use of inquiry rather than interpretive research or interpretive evaluation Richard E Morehouse explores how inquiry is a far more inclusive concept that allows for a detailed understanding of both research and evaluation The author draws on his personal experiences and observations that many academics and practitioners in education, psychology and many other academic disciplines are successfully engaged in both research and evaluation and that in practice these enterprises share much in common Having provided a solid philosophical foundation for an understanding of interpretive inquiry, the author gives a detailed and accessible step-by-step approach that explores all stages of the process including: how the processes of interpretive inquiry fit together, understanding where inquiry ideas come from, how to develop an appropriate inquiry sample, data collection mechanisms, effective data analysis, and writing successfully for publication

Developing Inquiry for Learning

Reflecting Collaborative Ways to Learn How to Learn in Higher Education
Peter Ovens, University of Cumbria, UK, Frances Wells, Patricia Wallis and Cyndy Hawkins, both at Nottingham Trent University, UK
In the innovative and practically proven approach developed by the authors of this book, students are guided to implement action research into their learning practices and reflections Using a rolling programme of cyclical inquiries and whole group conferences on improving learning, students write patches on learning development which are then shared across the year group online Each students cumulative set of patches, together with their regular reflective writing, provide the basis for assembling a composite final assignment, a Patchwork Text, for assessment This style of curriculum and assessment organisation encourages regular peer feedback and formative assessment, as part of the whole module process Providing teaching materials and examples of students responses, including the use of blogs, wikis and discussion boards, Developing Inquiry for Learning analyses and theorises on the deeper characteristics of the difficulties being addressed With the provision of relevant frameworks of theory and values, readers are amply equipped to adopt, adapt and experiment within their own developments of teaching and curricula

Emerging Approaches to Educational Research

Tracing the Socio-Material
Tara Fenwick, Richard Edwards, both at University of Stirling, UK and Peter Sawchuk, OISE, Universtity of Toronto, Canada
The last fifteen years have seen much conceptual and methodological innovation in research on education and learning across the lifecourse, bringing both fresh insights and new dilemmas This innovation was initially fuelled by the growing influence of conceptual framings often named as either post-structural or postmodern As part of and also in response to the influence of post-structuralism and postmodernism in the social sciences, there have emerged and developed a further range of conceptual and methodological framings which are more relational, system and practice-focussed Several of these framings work with a non-linear understanding of causality and embrace unpredictability in the world and undecidability in our understanding of it This book explores the most significant four of these framings, how they are being taken up in research in education and learning across the lifecourse, as well as their possibilities and limitations: complexity science, cultural historical activity theory (CHAT), actor-network theory (ANT), and spatiality theories Illustrated throughout with examples drawn from educational contexts across the life courses, including schooling, post-compulsory education and training, educational policy, workplace and community-based education in North America, the UK, and Australia

Practice-Based Research in Social Work

A Guide for Reluctant Researchers
Sarah-Jane Dodd and Irwin Epstein, both at Hunter College, CUNY, USA
This unique textbook explores practice-based research (PBR), using numerous practice examples to actively encourage and engage students and practitioners to embrace research as a meaningful support for their practice Whilst evidence-based practice gives practitioners access to information about universal best practices, it does not prioritize practitioner-generated knowledge or promote new research-based interventions relevant to their own practice circumstances as PBR does The chapters cover: identifying the research question in a PBR model, designing a study and identifying a methodology, sampling, literature reviews, gathering data, ethics, analyzing data and interpreting results, and putting research into practice

Developing Narrative Theory

Life Histories and Personal Representations
Ivor F. Goodson, University of Brighton, UK
Developing Narrative Theory shows in detail how life story interviews are conducted and demonstrates how the process often begins with relatively unstructured life story collection but moves to a more collaborative exchange where sociological themes and historical patterns are scrutinised and mutually explored Goodson shows that far from there being a singular form of narrative or an infinite range of unique and idiosyncratic narratives in fact there were clusters of narrativity, clusters of particular types of narrative style that can be grouped into four main areas: Focussed Elaborators, Scripted Describers, Armchair Elaborators, and Focussed Describers

Reviewing Qualitative Research in the Social Sciences

A Guide for Researchers and Reviewers
Audrey A. Trainor and Elizabeth Graue, both at University of Wisconsin - Madison, USA
Quantitative research, though diverse, shares a common set of assumptions, tools for inquiry, and goals These shared beliefs and practices promote methodological coherence with debate confined to the most esoteric methods Qualitative research, on the other hand, includes characteristics such as flexibility, variation in application, critique, and innovation all of which derive from its subjective roots in interpretivism and constructivism While the scholars who design qualitative research projects envision these qualities as strengths, they acknowledge that such factors present challenges during the peer review process As a result, those who review and consume qualitative research often have important and difficult-to-answer questions about the projects design, strategies/tools, and analysis, with few guidelines for gauging the merit of the work This book provides a useful guide for researchers, reviewers, and consumers who are charged with judging the quality of qualitative studies In order to deal with the challenges and controversies that accompany this goal, the experts represent multiple disciplines and methods of qualitative inquiry Their contributions represent the rich diversity in the field while simultaneously producing a pragmatic and useful guide While it is neither possible nor desirable to compartmentalize qualitative approaches and issues into neatly organized categories, the construct of method has been chosen as a common organizing device

Telling Lives
Exploring Dimensions of Narratives
Marianne Horsdal, University of Southern Denmark
Telling Lives: Exploring Dimensions of Narratives, illustrates as many facets as possible of the stories people tell about their lives Horsdal demonstrates the interconnectedness between engagements in narrative research and shows that the theoretical understanding of the nature of narrative is bound up with the methods for biographical narrative research Through a combination of three independent, connected narrative dimensions, an embodied, a cognitive and a socio-cultural narrative, the author focuses on life story narratives as symbolic expressions where cultural constructions allow for interpersonal interaction This book also outlines the influence cultural and social environments have upon our own unique narrative memories coupled with our own physical movements in space The author concludes that the telling and exchanging of human narratives is the primary way of making sense and creating meaning of our own being

Changing Schools through Systematic Inquiry

Why and How School Leaders do Research
Pat Thomson, University of Nottingham, UK and Jill Blackmore, Deakin University, Australia
There is an increasing understanding that school change is more effective when it is locally designed to suit specific histories and conditions, and that school-based research makes an important contribution to successful reform However there are relatively few books that address how local research can complement larger scale evidence to produce successful school redesign This book fills this gap Firmly founded on a strong theoretical foundation the authors pragmatic advice: recognises the messy everyday reality of schools, avoids a simplistic tool-kit approach to both organization change and to practitioner research, encourages school leaders and researchers to develop a repertoire of approaches to inquiry, links classroom and program based research to school improvement, and elaborates a range of research-based change strategies; situates school change in international contexts; addresses issues around commissioning research; connects research to tangible issues in change

Facilitating Practitioner Research

Developing Transformational Partnerships
Susan Groundwater-Smith, University of Sydney, Australia, Nicole Mockler, Jane Mitchell, Petra Ponte and Karin Ronnerman
This book addresses the complex dilemmas and issues that arise from the contribution made to practitioner inquiry Facilitating practitioner research is far more than providing advice upon methods which may be adopted, or even modelling research practices and drawing attention to appropriate resources and theories It also requires the evolution of strong reciprocal partnerships that will contribute to professional knowledge formation in both the academy and the field The authors explore how a transformative partnership requires particular professional attitudes of practitioners and academic researchers and show how it should result in three integrated areas of knowledge: the ideological, the empirical and the technical The text draws upon extensive case studies from the Netherlands, Sweden and Australia which not only illustrate and illuminate, but also highlight contradictions and tensions and serve to surface issues related to the quality of the partnerships between the academy and the field and the ways in which quality impacts upon practice These varying social geographies also allow a discussion of different intellectual traditions, belief systems, problem settings, questions, and discourses

Researching Young Childrens Perspectives

Debating the Ethics and Dilemmas of Educational Research with Children
Edited by Deborah Harcourt, Australian Catholic University, Australia, Bob Perry, Charles Sturt University, Australia and Tim Waller, Wolverhampton University, UK
What ethical dilemmas face researchers who work with young children? Researching Young Childrens Perspectives critically examines the challenges and complexities of rights based, participatory research with children Rather than approaching these dilemmas as problematic issues, this book positions them as important topics for discussion and reflection The authors consider the ethical, methodological and theoretical frameworks that guide best-practice in research with young children Each chapter poses points for consideration that will inform and challenge both the novice and experienced researcher, such as: How participatory can research be with infants under eighteen months? When should listening through observation stand alone? What is the distinction between methodologies and methods? How can all young children be assured of a voice in research? The authors also present seven separate case studies which demonstrate exemplary research with young children Each study is accompanied by insightful commentary from the authors, who highlight the issues or difficulties faced and propose potential solutions

Writing Research Critically

Developing the Power to Make a Difference
Jill Schostak, University of East Anglia, UK and John Schostak, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK
Writing Research Critically shows that writing up is not just about presenting findings as if the facts would speak for themselves The authors show there are certain vital skills that any writer needs to develop within their academic writing, such as the ability to: develop critical understanding and a personal academic voice, question assumptions and the status quo, frame the background and transgress the frame, read between the lines when reviewing the literature, strengthen interpretations and construct persuasive arguments, challenge and develop theory and explanations, and develop ideas that create possibilities for realistic action Packed with examples from a range of writing projects (papers, dissertations, theses, reports, journal articles and books), this book provides a practical and refreshing way to approach and present research Through case studies the authors offer a step-by-step guide from the early stages of planning a writing project to the polishing processes that make the difference between a merely descriptive account to an argument that intends to be critical and persuasive

Strategies and Tools for the Inquiry Process
Edited by Christine C. Pappas, University of Illinois at Chicago (Emerita), USA and Eli Tucker-Raymond, Chche Konnen Center at TERC, USA
Becoming a Teacher Researcher in Literacy Teaching and Learning provides background information and key concepts in teacher research, covers the how-to strategies of the teacher research process from the initial proposal to writing up the report as publishable or presentable work, illustrates a range of literacy topics and grade levels, features twelve reports by teacher researchers who have gone through the process, and their candid remarks about how activities helped (or not), and helps teachers understand how knowledge is constructed socially in their classrooms so that they can create instructional communities that promote all students learning Addressing the importance of teacher research for better instruction, reform, and political action, this text emphasizes strategies teachers can use to support and strengthen their voices as they dialogue with others in the educational community, so that their ideas and perspectives may have an impact on educational practice both locally in their schools and districts and more broadly
