A 101 Action Research Guide for Beginners - Saba Ahmed
«Written for those new or returning to educational and action research, the author travels from definitions of key terms, through data collection and academic writing, to the finished research report. There are welcome stop offs for reflection, artificial intelligence, and quality assurance. The final chapter brings the work together in example reports written following small scale action research projects.The author provides a resource that’s very much needed. It’s simple, real and relevant to novice researchers while being authoritative and straightforward, reflective without being fluffy, and grounded in science and related subjects.»(Louise Coleman, Pearson BTEC Higher National Subject Lead for Health and Science, MSc, DCR(T))«A jargon-busting, comprehensive guide for teachers and students working on action research projects. The book examines research terminology and common data collation methods, emphasising the importance of quality assurance. The author also discusses how contemporary STEM teaching examples, teacher roles and societal issues intersect.If you are looking to find out more about how empirical teaching experience and theoretical frameworks can inform action research projects, in a book that cuts through the jargon, then look no further!»(Joe Jackson-Taylor, Deputy Headteacher, Organiser, researchED Bournemouth) The main premise of the book is to demystify research terminology for those teaching, and completing action research projects; in particular for trainee STEM teachers engaged in action research. Research terms such as systematic reviews, and meta-analysis will be explained in a simple manner, with solid links made with teaching and practice. The author found research terminology hard to decipher after a long gap from doing their undergraduate dissertation, and then doing their action research project for the postgraduate diploma in education and training. This book is written to support all researchers in the same position.In the 101 action research guide, the real-life example of a STEM teacher action research project to improve literacy skills for STEM students in a FE setting, is used to promote the merits of action research in teaching. It is a must read for anyone, who hasn’t done a research project in a while to help them refamiliarise themselves with research terminology.

Complaint! - Sara Ahmed
In Complaint! Sara Ahmed examines what we can learn about power from those who complain about abuses of power. Drawing on oral and written testimonies from academics and students who have made complaints about harassment, bullying, and unequal working conditions at universities, Ahmed explores the gap between what is supposed to happen when complaints are made and what actually happens. To make complaints within institutions is to learn how they work and for whom they work: complaint as feminist pedagogy. Ahmed explores how complaints are made behind closed doors and how doors are often closed on those who complain. To open these doors---to get complaints through, keep them going, or keep them alive---Ahmed emphasizes, requires forming new kinds of collectives. This book offers a systematic analysis of the methods used to stop complaints and a powerful and poetic meditation on what complaints can be used to do. Following a long lineage of Black feminist and feminist of color critiques of the university, Ahmed delivers a timely consideration of how institutional change becomes possible and why it is necessary.

Living a Feminist Life - Sara Ahmed
In Living a Feminist Life Sara Ahmed shows how feminist theory is generated from everyday life and the ordinary experiences of being a feminist at home and at work. Building on legacies of feminist of color scholarship in particular, Ahmed offers a poetic and personal meditation on how feminists become estranged from worlds they critique—often by naming and calling attention to problems—and how feminists learn about worlds from their efforts to transform them. Ahmed also provides her most sustained commentary on the figure of the feminist killjoy introduced in her earlier work while showing how feminists create inventive solutions—such as forming support systems—to survive the shattering experiences of facing the walls of racism and sexism. The killjoy survival kit and killjoy manifesto, with which the book concludes, supply practical tools for how to live a feminist life, thereby strengthening the ties between the inventive creation of feminist theory and living a life that sustains it.

No Is Not a Lonely Utterance - Sara Ahmed
A moving exploration of the solace and power of listening in an unjust world, from the author of The Feminist Killjoy Handbook‘Behind many disasters are unheard complaints’To complain is an intimate, dangerous act. Whether it’s speaking up about racism in the workplace or taking a stand against sexual harassment at university, the act of complaining to an institution can leave you isolated and undermined, all while the original injustice remains unresolved. Time and time again, we see these unanswered complaints compound to disastrous effect.In No is Not a Lonely Utterance, Sara Ahmed dissects the anatomy of a complaint, revealing how institutions create hostile environments that stigmatize complainers, and charts a way we can listen to grievances with ‘feminist ears’: going beyond mere validation and seeking instead to address the root causes of injustice and inequality.Weaving together testimonies from various walks of life, Ahmed shows us what we learn about the ways institutions exercise their power when complaints are raised, and indeed what we learn about our capacity to collectivize and create social bonds through complaint. In doing so, she inspires us to create better environments for our life’s work.
