Abstract | This chapter articulates three possible approaches to engaging with education research mazes: navigating (by heading towards, away from and/or around selected points of scholarly reference), negotiating (through interacting with research frameworks, technologies, participants, gatekeepers and other stakeholders), and nullifying (in the sense of understanding and where appropriate diminishing and/or enhancing what is puzzling or troubling about the research). The authors illustrate these three approaches to mobilising education research mazes with targeted accounts drawn from their respective research projects. In doing so, the chapter demonstrates theoretically framed and experientially grounded strategies for embracing the contextual, conceptual, methodological and transformational research challenges and opportunities presented in the subsequent chapters in the book. From this perspective, education research mazes emerge as integral components of the broader research enterprise. |
