Network for Educational Action Research in Ireland

Would you like to join us for the inaugural meeting of the Network for Educational Action Research in Ireland?

Share in the Magic of Action Research — an opportunity to network and meet up with others of an ‘action researcherly’ disposition in the informal, relaxed setting of the Interfaith Centre, Dublin City University on 25th April, from 10.30 to 2.30. Map shows Centre as M just by grassed lawns in middle, at http://www.dcu.ie/sites/default/files/campus_map_large.jpg

You are invited to network with action researchers who are new to action research, who are working on action research projects and who are life-long action researchers. This is a cross sectoral group with Primary, 2nd Level and Further Education participants.

The aim of this group is

• to contribute to the greater good and growth of educational knowledge by sharing our research stories
