The SAGE Handbook of Educational Action Research by Susan E Noffke

There has been a huge growth of interest in action research in educational settings over the past 20 years across the Americas, Europe, Australia and Africa - this Handbook provides a scholarly reference text that will inform the development of the field.

′[I]t is undoubtedly an important and interesting volume′ - ESCalate

′Action research continues to play a major role in democratising educational inquiryThis volume demonstrates why this is the case. It provides a set of articulate and sensitive analyses that deserve a wide readership.′ - Michael W. Apple, John Bascom Professor of Education, University of Wisconsin, US; Madison and World Scholar and Professor of Educational Policy Studies, Institute of Education, University of London, UK

I have done historical/conceptual work in social studies as well as some analysis of my own practice as a social studies teacher educator, both of these with a particular eye toward issues of anti-racist education. I have recently completed a number of publications reflecting these broad research interests. A natural outgrowth of both the conceptual and field studies has been on the need for a more adequate framework for curriculum history and curriculum development (including that for teacher education) to reflect the diverse segment of American education. I have recently published on participatory action research and worked to facilitate understanding of diversity among pre-service teachers through social and community inquiry assignments. Bridget Somekh is based at Manchester Metropolitan University as well as University of Canterbury.
