Detail Theory and Passion in Action Research   Oleh:  Somekh, Bridget Jenis: Article from Journal Dalam koleksi: Educational Action Research vol. 11 no. 02 (2003), page 247-264. Topik: Action Research; Passion Fulltext: 452308__739038008.pdf (168.3KB) Isi artikel The starting point for this article is Polanyi’s insight that learning involves the personal participation of the knower in taking possession of knowledge, and that this process ‘takes place within a flow of passion’. Somekh pays tribute to Elliott’s role in her own intellectual development, as her tutor while she was still a teacher, and later as her colleague. The article focuses on the contribution of the articles published in Educational Action Research, during its first 10 years, under the title of ‘Theoretical Resources’. The contested nature of this title is discussed and illuminated through an exploration of Elliott’s writing about teachers’ knowledge and the role of both theory and practice in theory generation. Somekh argues for the importance of intellectual engagement with ideas and theories through passionate participation within a ‘personalised and contextualised reality’ – she sees this process as akin to Elliott’s notion of action research as a process which ‘problematises the ideas of theorists’.
