| Description: |
How can researchers and research-informed practitioners best engage in and with networks and develop effective networking practices? This book considers of how educational research as a field is developing, identifies new research skills, approaches and practices, and presents an emerging new role: the 'researcher-as-networker'. |
| Synopsis: |
This book explores how researchers can engage effectively in networks and carry out research on networks and networking. The educational world is increasingly dominated by 'network rhetoric'; not only are teachers and learners seen as participants in networks, the availability of low-cost electronic devices, collaborative environments and new forms of data 'born digital' have changed the nature of education research. How can researchers and research-informed practitioners best engage in and with networks and develop effective networking practices? How might networks and networking be conceptualized in order to frame and support their work in and on networks? How do networks relate to existing organizational forms and how might new networking practices emerge? This book draws on extensive research into educational research networks in schools, colleges and informal education settings to explore these questions.Combining theoretical insights into networks from different disciplinary backgrounds and awareness of technological developments with the accounts of teachers, researchers, technologists and policymakers, it considers of how educational research as a field is developing, identifies new research skills, approaches and practices, and presents an emerging new role: the 'researcher-as-networker'. |
