Action Research

This Kindle document is the culmination of a three month action research (AR) project. It was undertaken with the purpose of getting the unheard voice heard in a writing and dialogue group in the Northeast. This work describes the transformation of the group in that three month time span under which the study took place. AR utilizes a four cycle process of discovery, measurable action, reflection, and action, in order to strategically work towards a goal with data constantly informing decisions. It is these qualities of AR that make it ideal for social justice and educational equity work. ...

In The Life Review, Rob Roden explores one of the most consistent and transformative elements reported in near-death research: the moment when consciousness encounters the full relational ...

This book is a testament to the power of collaborative, liberatory approaches to research,curriculum, and pedagogy.

We know that there are other changes that need to occur at the policy level tocombat the issues students are facing in schools and communities, but education can anddoes play a powerful role in the struggle for equity and justice.
