Description

Early career researchers (ECRs) in education bring unique histories of professional practice and development into academic research communities. Women Becoming Practitioner Researchers explores autoethnographies of twelve women who were, or still are, schoolteachers in the process of becoming researchers. Using autoethnography to disrupt the established systems that distance researchers from their research, the chapters in this volume are curated to apply theory to this important transition. This theory-as-method approach provides a foundation for understanding as the authors weave threads of identities and experiences into their roles as practitioner researchers.

Su Lyn Corcoran taught at secondary level in the UK and internationally for over a decade before starting her doctoral studies. She is currently a Research Associate at Manchester Metropolitan University.

Claire Goodley taught English as a Foreign Language abroad before teaching Modern Foreign Languages and PSHCE for over twenty years. She is currently a Senior Lecturer and Program Lead for full-time postgraduate taught education-based Masters programmes at Manchester Metropolitan University.

Alexandra Hay spent a decade leading and teaching a range of social science subjects in a secondary school in the Midlands and completed her Doctorate in Education alongside this role. She is now a Senior Lecturer in Education and Program Lead for BA Education at Manchester Metropolitan University.

Anna Olsson Rost taught history in secondary school prior to completing her PhD in 2016, and is now a Senior Lecturer and Program Lead in (Secondary) Teacher Education at Manchester Metropolitan University.
