Edited by:


March 2020 | 320 pages | Learning Matters

An introduction to the study and exploration of education.

This book gives readers a strong introduction to what education is, the challenges it faces and how to study education at university and beyond. It also explores how educationalists research, engage with debate and explore particular themes and how this impacts on their practice.
This book:

  • Covers key themes, foundation knowledge and essential theory from across the education sector
  • Supports students in knowing what to study and understand – and how to study and develop their understanding
  • Helps readers to see the ‘bigger picture’ of education 
  • Includes support for academic writing, critical exploration of themes, evaluating evidence and engaging with debates
