No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780367144418 Routledge

With an increasing emphasis on the role of evidence in education, primary school teachers need to find meaningful ways to engage in research. Teachers and Young Researchers in Action supports teachers and children in carrying out meaningful classroom research that can transform practice. An accessible guide, it shows the different ways in which children and teachers can go about their research, the problems they may meet on the way and the tried and tested methods to meet those challenges.

Illustrated with rich real-life examples of research projects - exploring rewards and sanctions, values education, school structures and reading for pleasure - it shows how we can celebrate the importance of the voice of the child in school life, benefitting individual children, teachers and schools alike. This accessible book outlines the benefits of children's research for individual children, teachers and schools as well as providing case studies that demonstrate how young children's research projects can be successful.

Written for teachers by teachers, this go-to resource will be of interest to anyone working with children as researchers looking to improve their practice and in need of guidance and support.
