Practice Methodologies in Education Research

This book explores the methodological approaches researchers have developed that respond to practice theory, and what and how this looks in practice. By focusing on the onto-epistemological challenges of these theories, methodological responses are discussed in relation to how integral practice theory has become to education research.

Practice Methodologies in Education Research offers a fresh approach to researching practice in education. Addressing a major gap in research methodology scholarship, it highlights how integral practice theory is to the transformational agendas of education research, introducing a theory of activist practice methodologies informed by expansive theories of practice.　

With contributions from leading education researchers drawn from across the world, the book confronts onto-epistemological dilemmas for doing research that arise from taking practice theory seriously, including the theories of Bourdieu, de Certeau, Deleuze, Haraway, Latour, Taylor, and Vygotsky. A defining feature of the chapters is their activist axiologies and their experimental approach to researching practice in education, in fields as diverse as educational leadership, schooling, higher education, adult and workplace education and training, professional practice, and informal learning.　

Practice Methodologies in Education is essential reading for education academics and postgraduates engaged in critical research using practice theory.
