Summary: | "Governments around the world have committed themselves to increasing participation in access to further and higher education. In order to formulate and implement policies and interventions to this end, education policy-makers and managers need access to reliable, wide-ranging, and cutting-edge research derived from a range of qualitative and quantitative methodologies, and conducted in a variety of contexts. Researching Widening Access in Further and Higher Education is a comprehensive exploration of how such research can most effectively be conducted, the different forms it can take, and its significance and value for education policy."--Publisher description. |
