The editors and contributors explore the issues involved in breaking down boundaries between educational research and practice - research often seen as an elitist activity that can only be determined by a favoured few - as well as the socially constructed nature of boundaries between academic and vocational education. Containing illuminating case studies written by practicing teachers from the further and vocational education sector, it posits that educational research should enable teachers to learn from research in order to improve their own educational practice. This book will be of interest and value to scholars of further and vocational education, as well as those wanting to bridge the gap between research and practice. . 606 $aContinuing education 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aTeachers$xTraining of 606 $aProfessional education 606 $aVocational education 606 $aLifelong Learning 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics 606 $aTeaching and Teacher Education 606 $aProfessional and Vocational Education 615 0$aContinuing education. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 0$aTeachers$xTraining of. 615 0$aProfessional education. 615 0$aVocational education. 615 14$aLifelong Learning. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 615 24$aTeaching and Teacher Education. 615 24$aProfessional and Vocational Education. 676 $a374.0072 676 $a374.0072 702 $aGregson$b Margaret$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSpedding$b Patricia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416091203321 996 $aPractice-Focused Research in Further Adult and Vocational Education$92057314 997 $aUNINA
