Thinking in Education Research: Applying Philosophy and Theory - Nick Peim

. .

Résumé :

Thinking in Education Research examines the resources available from philosophy and theory that can be practically applied to any educational research project. Nick Peim argues that the current well-established divide between theory and the empirical in research methods is unhelpful to students. Instead, Thinking in Education Research looks at major lines of thinking in modern European philosophy, from Kant to Freud and Derrida to Malabou, and how they provide a rich resource for every stage of conducting research. By getting students engaged in 'how to think' and 'how to do', Peim illustrates that thinking is in fact a vital part of how you do research and is not an aside.

Essential aspects of the research endeavour are re-examined in the light of key philosophical positions to offer constructive potential, including:

- defining the object...

Biographie:

- the relation to truth...
