Popis: | I am currently engaged in research aimed at improving my practice as a supervisor of practitioner action research projects. The exploration of my developing practice has involved me in exploring both my role as a supervisor and my learning as a supervisee. Questions emerging from my work include: What is the body of literature in which my work is to be located? Why is its identification problematic? In writing up my research, I want to re-define the field of literature in terms of that literature which has really engaged me and challenged my thinking rather than in terms of the literature which merely exists within some pre-defined field. I would also want to argue that this conception of the literature fits the kind of model of action research which demands that we show a willingness to step outside our usual frames of reference, that we question our habitual ways of seeing and that we constantly seek out fresh perspectives on the familiar. |
