BOOK EXCERPT:
This book explores the discourses in learning and teaching policy in UK higher education, traces how these ideas are recontextualised at institutional level and reveals the differences between policy discourses and lecturers’ and students’ experiences. The author argues that policy ideas around learning and teaching are not simply value-free ‘best practice’ but reflect the socio-political context of higher education. The study uses an innovative conceptual framework of critical discourse studies (CDS) and Bernstein’s sociology of pedagogy to provide critical lenses to uncover the underlying messages of policy. The book will interest a wide academic audience including anyone involved in higher education globally.

BOOK EXCERPT:
While education researchers have drawn on the work of a wide diversity of theorists over the years, much contemporary theory building in these areas has revolved around the work of Pierre Bourdieu. Theory as Method in Research develops the capacity of students, researchers and teachers to successfully put Bourdieu’s ideas to work in their own research and prepare them effectively for conducting Masters and Doctoral scholarships. Structured around four core themes, this book provides a range of research case studies exploring educational identities, educational inequalities, school leadership and management, and research in teacher education. Issues as diverse as Chinese language learning and identity, school leadership in Australia and the school experience of Afro-Trinidadian boys, are covered, intertwined with a set of innovative approaches to theory application in education research. This collection brings together, in one comprehensive volume, a set of education researchers who place Pierre Bourdieu’s key concepts such as habitus, capital and field at the centre of their research methodologies. Full of insight and innovation, the book is an essential read for practitioners, student teachers, researchers and academics who want to harness the potential of Bourdieu’s core concepts in their own work, thereby helping to bridge the gap between theory and method in education research.

BOOK EXCERPT:
The Routledge International Handbook of Constructivist Grounded Theory in Educational Research provides a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in Constructivist Grounded Theory (CGT) methodology, including core grounded theory tenets and processes as well as constructivist ‘adaptations’. It features CGT research from across the education sector, including studies based in primary schooling, post-primary (second-level) schooling, and higher education. Across 5 parts and 20 chapters, the book makes explicit how CGT techniques and processes were implemented in the field, the way(s) in which challenges were navigated, and how educational researchers aligned their research processes to constructivist principles. It offers exemplars of good practice by educational researchers from Australia, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK, and the USA. The Handbook synthesises learning from the experiences of CGT researchers in education to establish a framework of guidance for early career and more experienced researchers. Additionally, it directly interrogates and considers how to address challenges in the implementation of high-quality CGT and looks to the future of the methodology in educational research. This Handbook provides guidance and education-specific examples to doctoral students and researchers who wish to use or are using CGT in educational research. It will also be of significant interest to qualitative researchers in other disciplines like sociology, psychology, and nursing.
