'This book makes a timely contribution to debate and developing practice in critical educational inquiry, specifically in the context of research intended to enhance teaching quality, both as a laudable aim in itself and in response to external drivers such as the TEF. The central thrust of the book acknowledges the challenges for non-HE researchers coping with the 'strange land of higher education studies' and the importance of locating academic research within the discipline as a starting point.
'The emphasis in this book on developing ‘enquiring universities’ is a welcome articulation of what is ‘higher’ about higher education. This book provides academics with a variety of tools they can use in order to conduct critical enquiries into their own academic practice.'
This is a useful text on critical education enquiry with general content on education literature, sections on ethics, safety, data and chapters on enquiry in different areas of practice. The book is well designed, accessible, contains activities, case studies and suggestions for further reading.
