Researching EducationData, Methods and Theory in Educational EnquiryDavid Scott, University of London, UK, and Robin Usher, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia.Researching Education looks at the theory and practice of researching education and examines the philosophical, historical, political and social contexts of research and the implications of these for the collection and analysis of data. Scott and Usher argue that while power is ever present in the construction of research texts, this is inevitable as research imposes a closure of the world through representations and thus is always and inevitably involved with and implicated in the operation of power.

Reinventing Schools, Reforming TeachingFrom Political Visions to Classroom RealitiesJohn Bangs, National Union of Teachers, UK; John MacBeath and Maurice Galton, both University of Cambridge, UK.This book considers the impact of educational policies on those who have to translate political priorities into the day to day work of schools and classrooms. The authors argue that an evidence-informed view of policy making has yet to be realised, graphically illustrating how many recent political decisions in education can be explained by the personal experiences, predilections and short-term needs of key decision-makers.


Education

School TroubleIdentity, Power and Politics in EducationDeborah Youdell, University of London, UK.This book offers a solid introduction to the much-debated issues of ‘intersectionality’ and the limits of identity politics and the relationship between schooling and the wider policy and political context.

Education

Practical Work in Secondary ScienceA Minds-On ApproachIan Abrahams, University of York, UK. Practical work is an essential feature of secondary science education. However, questions have been raised by some science educators about its effectiveness as a teaching and learning strategy. Whilst such an approach is generally effective in getting pupils to do things with objects and materials, it is seen as relatively ineffective in developing their conceptual understanding of the associated scientific ideas and concepts. Ian Abrahams argues that this is because it is practiced as a ‘hands-on’, rather than ‘minds-on’ activity. Abrahams draws together theory and practice on effective teaching and learning in practical work in science - covering biology, chemistry and physics.

Gender and MigrationFeminist PerspectivesIngrid Palmary and Peace Kiguwa, both University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg; Erica Burman, Manchester Metropolitan University; and Khatidja Chantler, University of Manchester.Migration has become a key area of preoccupation for governments, international agencies and human rights activists the world over.
