- Summary:
-
"This Research in Practice Series title focuses on critical reflection and showcases how educators can think about issues more deeply and in divergent ways to support practitioner research. When critical reflection is used alongside action research, it can be transformative for practice at personal and whole-service levels. The book includes a practical explanation of action research to support educators in their professional learning journey towards becoming critically reflective practitioner-researchers. It also elaborates on two real-life case studies on action research projects. These will assist educators in imagining and planning their own practitioner action research aimed at improving quality in their centres."--Publisher's website.
