Description
Thinking in Education Research: Applying Philosophy and Theory to Your Research Project. This book explores how philosophy and theory can be applied to educational research projects. Nick Peim argues that the traditional divide between theory and empirical methods is unhelpful, and instead offers a practical approach to conducting research. By examining key philosophical positions, Peim illustrates how thinking is an essential part of the research process. The book covers various aspects of research, including defining the object, giving an account of the field, and the value attributed to formal knowledge. Clear summaries of key philosophical debates are complemented by boxed accounts of how these ideas can be applied to real research projects. This approach encourages readers to engage with theoretical concepts and develop their own thinking. By applying philosophy and theory to educational research, this book aims to enhance possibilities for research practice and find opportunities for its expansion and refinement.
