Theories in use that explain adolescent help seeking and avoidance in mathematics
The aim of this study was to understand why some students avoid seeking help when they find classwork difficult. We employed a qualitative methodology to discover the theories in use that described and explained what high school students did and did not do when they did not understand in math classes. After 5 classroom observations of students’ help-seeking behavior, stimulated recall interviews were conducted with 18 students to compare the taci…

The explanation of practice
Empirical research on copying and cheating in high school and university has typically employed quantitative survey methods. While these methods tell us about the conditions under which it is more and less likely to occur, they tell us less about the reasoning that leads students to copy the work of others. An alternative problem-based methodology (PBM) is presented which treats copying as a student'ssolution to the problem of how to complete an …
Methodology and the Research-Practice Gap
A much neglected reason for the limited contribution of research to the understanding and improvement of educational practice is the mismatch between educational research methodologies and the generic features of practice. Increasing the match requires an account of practice that clarifies its methodological implications. I propose a problem-based methodology (PBM) in which practices are treated as solutions to practical problems and explained by…
Doing critical social science
Critical social science research claims to offer enlightenment and emancipation to members of various oppressed groups. Paradoxically, it can be argued that this mode of social science research lacks adequate safeguards against its own impositional tendencies. This paper outlines a theory of intervention that provides such safeguards and illustrates the application of the theory in two Auckland secondary schools. The empirical project involved an…
