Context and Beyond: Reframing the Theory and Practice of Education - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Dr Seddon examines the concept of "context" conceptually and historically. She considers the philosophical, theoretical and methodological debates which frame distinct perspectives in the study of education and suggests that mainstream educational research is being challenged by a relational perspective which attends to processes of educational change and therefore provides a stronger basis for explaining contemporary developments in education. The relational perspective is illustrated in an historical case study of educational change in New South Wales, Australia during the 1930s depression. Dr Seddon makes a case for a sustained sociology and social theory of educational change.
