About

“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.”
