Description

A comprehensive exploration of the issues surrounding of concept generation and theory building in educational research, drawing on international research. This volume provides comprehensive guidance on the subjects of concept generation and theory building in educational research. By deploying the conceptual, methodological and theoretical principles of the Cambridge School of Sociology, that underpin a range of contemporary empirical research, the author shows how theory building, and theory, in contemporary educational research is in a state of crisis. In his compelling analysis, Nigel Kettley develops an alternative approach to theory building in educational research, and explores a radical new system for facilitating the growth of knowledge and the development of sound policy recommendations in education studies. Review 'Kettley has written a provocative and challenging tour de force about theory building in education research. An essential resource for teachers of research methods and new researchers alike, this book also invites established researchers to interrogate the foundations of their practice as an important contribution to the development of an often contested field of enquiry.' Zane Ma Rhea, Senior Lecturer, Monash University, Australia'Nigel Kettley has written a courageous, scholarly and easy to read wake up call for publicly-funded education research. If the argument in this book were widely accepted, and it should be, it would lead to a revolutionary and highly ethical improvement in the use of evidence for explanations.' Stephen Gorard, Professor of Education Research, University of Birmingham, UK About the Author Nigel Kettley is Lecturer in Social Science at the Institute of Continuing Education and Fellow of Wolfson College, University of Cambridge, UK.
