This book is aimed at teachers and lecturers who wish to engage with research within their own institution, whether a school, college or university. It leads the reader through the issues involved in undertaking such research and provides practical tasks to help build a research project. Research design, access, data gathering, use of data, ethical issues and dissemination are all covered in an interactive style drawn from the author's own research experience and teaching. The book includes practical tasks which can be used for self-study or as part of a taught programme. Each chapter raises questions at a theoretical level, and sets a practical task to enable the reader to reflect upon the issues. This links theory and practice to develop a sound basis for action. Strategies are discussed in each chapter and illustrated by examples from research from a range of contexts. This provides a model for the readers' own research. This book is essential reading for teachers thinking of doing research in their own school as part of the review process, for professional development or further study.
