The Australasian Association for Critical Realism (AACR)is pleased to announce the latest in a new series of seminars, to be held at the University of Sydney.

Room 148 (downstairs)
R.C. Mills Building
University of Sydney

No one said this was going to be easy!
Journeying from underlabouring to debates in meta-theory and education
Alison Gable, School of Education, University of Queensland

In an effort to explore why inclusive forms of education still elude certain cohorts of school student, her research has focused on the collaborative, adult working relationships supporting students with disabilities who are perceived to have challenging behaviour. However her study has also focused on the process of research and the implications of applying a critical realist framework to a complex phenomenon. While this has resulted in some questions about the limitations of critical realist research, it has also positioned the research problem within much larger and significant debates concerning theory, school reform and the philosophy of inclusion.
We adjourn to the pub afterwards as well.

PLEASE send this on to anyone in your Dept or Faculty you think might be interested!  Thanks.
