Abstract:
The new Handbook of Teaching & Learning Social Research Methods illustrates the wide range of pedagogic approaches in the classroom, online, in the field and in informal contexts. Bringing together contributors from varied disciplines, methodological approaches and nations, it represents a landmark in the development of pedagogical culture for social research methods. The conversation session brings together some of the contributing authors to the Handbook to reflect on their experiences and research in the field. You can expect critical insights, passion and controversy as the authors discuss what they see as important to teaching and learning social research methods well. We invite other teachers and learners to join in the conversation.
