Assignment questions
Introduction
This introduction is talking about understanding the different aspects of becoming a
researcher in education. It discusses topics like the journey, curiosity, courage,
intervention, and social justice. The assignment involves applying these aspects to a
fictional character, Smith, and considering how they relate to our own journey in
becoming researchers in education.
In addition, it mentions the potential for researchers to contribute to democracy in
education. In South Africa, the constitutional democracy highlights the importance of
democracy in all aspects of society, including education. The assignment involves
creating a research project aimed at promoting democracy in education. This
includes developing elements like background information, the problem statement,
research questions, and rationale, focusing on specific areas such as curriculum,
pedagogy, management, or parental involvement.
Question 1 (LU 1)
Learning Unit 1 describes different aspects of becoming a researcher such as
‘journey’, ‘curiosity and courage’, ‘intervention’ and ‘social justice and
critique’.
Describe how these aspects apply to Smith becoming a researcher.
How do you think these aspects apply to your own becoming a researcher in
education?
In this essay, we're going to explore how the ideas of becoming a researcher,
explained in Learning Unit 1, relate to Linda Tuhiwai Smith's journey as a researcher
and how they also connect to our own journey in becoming researchers in education.
We'll focus on aspects like the journey of research, curious questioning, intervention,
social justice, and critique.
