Researching Identity, Diversity and Education

By Ivana Milojevic, Julie Yamanashi

Overview

“When educational research is driven by curiosity about the ever-changing, always normative, and often unnoticed seedbed of everyday cultural experience and aspiration, then it is above all a discourse of cultural optimism. The point of research is to discover things. The point of educational research is to change the social world by discovering better understanding of its qualities.”

Peter Freebody
