Doing Educational Research collects together the semi-autobiographical accounts of the research of thirteen major educationalists, all of whom have been involved in prominent and influential projects. In recounting the ways in which their work was conducted, the authors focus on the practical and personal aspects of the research process, so often overlooked in conventional accounts. Coping with the complicated and the unpredictable emerges as a keynote in these descriptions of the reality of educational research. The authors discuss the various stages of the research process including conception of the project, obtaining funding, gaining access to the research site, managing research relationships, gathering information, analysing data, writing up the research report, publishing books and articles, and the reception given to the research by others. Educationalists, policy-makers, and those involved in education research will all benefit from a greater knowledge of the research methods used in these major studies. The book offers new understanding for those who read and use educational research, and will be a source of support and guidance for students and researchers attempting to conduct their own research.
