Research Journeys

The editors of this book, Emma Seal, Chloe Blackmore and Elsa Lee are a group of doctoral researchers in the Department of Education at the University of Bath. Their research interests span sport sociology, global citizenship education and environmental education, and they have experience in a range of qualitative research methods in these areas. This book stems from their joint effort, supported by the University of Bath, in organising a student conference on "Research Journeys" in 2012. As student representatives and co-organisers of the departmental student forum, they recognised the need for a space for doctoral researchers to discuss the experiences and challenges facing emerging researchers, and hence set up a conference around this theme. This book is an outcome of that conference.
