Feature

* There is no other research project in the field of further education that has used a website to host its data and to involve a wider audience with the findings and as participants in this way. * The text will draw together three strands: a discussion around transformative pedagogy, an exploration of critical educational research methodology and a commentary on research data from the project. The aim is to present a text that provides evidence for a fully theorised model of transformative teaching and learning in further education and thereby to contribute to a body of international literature on this subject.
