Education, Epistemology and Critical Realism Hardback
by David (Institute of Education, University of London, UK) Scott
Part of the New Studies in Critical Realism and Education Routledge Critical Realism series
Hardback
Description
This book addresses fundamental questions in relation to education and its epistemology.
The position taken by the author is critical realist; and thus throughout the relationship between education and critical realism is foregrounded.
Themes and issues that surface at different times in the book are: a critical realist view of education research; a resolution of the quantitative/qualitative divide; criteria for judging the worth of educational texts and practices; differences between scientific and critical realisms; empirical research methods in education; structure-agency relationships; pragmatist views of educational research; foundations and paradigmatic differences; and educational critique and transformation.
