"Learner-Centred Pedagogy in the Global South: Pupils and Teachers' Experiences" shines light on learner-centred pedagogy (LCP), which has gained popularity within global and national governments, albeit resulting in puzzling and inconsequential appropriation.

Yet there remains…

Mejia, Andres – Journal of Philosophy of Education, 2010
Traditionally, research has been seen as a process in which particular cases are studied in order to produce generalisations that can later be applied to other situations. This is arguably the case, for instance, of plain statistical generalisation from samples to populations, but also of grounded theory, local theory and democratic theory. Other…

This new book presents case studies from the US, the UK and Japan.
