Description
This authoritative guide explores the theory and practice of work-based research, addressing key issues faced by 'insider-researchers' - individuals undertaking research projects in their own organizations or familiar settings. The authors discuss approaches and methodologies that work-based researchers might adopt, with a focus on ethics.
Suitable for anyone conducting a research project based on work practice, including learners on postgraduate, undergraduate, and doctoral programmes, as well as practitioners, managers, and participants in work-based courses or modules in education, healthcare, and business management.
