The Role of Research in Teachers' Work

The Role of Research in Teachers’ Work privileges teachers’ voices and explores what teachers themselves say about systematic research, the process of becoming researchers and the establishment of collaborative relationships with their teacher research partner; as well as the impact of research on their identity as teachers and on their students, on student outcomes, and on their pedagogical practices. Unique in contemporary writing on schools, this book and its companion, My School, represent one of the only comprehensive longitudinal studies of a low socioeconomic status secondary school from the perspective of those who learn and teach within it.
