The importance of educational research for professional development and classroom practice is becoming increasingly significant. This collection looks at both enacting teacher research and the methodologies involved within it.
'The volume originates in the schools and universities of British Columbia, but ... it is international in scope, bringing together accounts of successful projects across the world. The stress is on methodology - excellent for a teacher unsure of how to set about it ... It is also rich in opportunities for improving professional practice.' - Michael Duffy, Times Educational Supplement'This book promises to provide much needed practical examples and exemplars of teacher research in action as well as a contemporary treatment of some of the significant issues of methodology and practice facing the field.' - Fred Korthagen (University of Utrecht, the Netherlands)'Any text that addresses teacher research, brings together a group of excellent authors and includes examples is a book that should be published.' - Mary Lynn Hamilton (University of Kansas, USA
