Abstract
This is a works-in-progress session where multiethnic practitioner researchers in the Ed. D. in Curriculum Studies Program at Georgia Southern explore creative ways to dive into life, write into contradictions, and turn dissertations into books derived from programs of research on the life of schools, families, and communities in the U. S. South. The book series editors will work with prospective authors from diverse research paradigms on multiple forms of inquiry and representation in educational research. The book series editors will work with prospective authors particularly on the cultural, linguistic, and political poetics of personal, community, and historical narrative to liberate academic writing. The potentials, contributions, concerns, and future directions of various inquiries and representations are also discussed. Specifically, the book series editors will work with the prospective authors chapter by chapter. Published books in the series will be used as examples for the prospective authors as they compose a book prospectus, a mission statement, market questionnaires, book contract, and any other relevant documents for the submission of book manuscripts to the book series editors. The purpose of this work session is to explore creative ways to write about research and to recognize the importance of, and ways of engaging in such writing to embody a particular stance in relation to integrity, beauty, humanity, and freedom, to move beyond traditions and boundaries, and to embed inquiry in school, neighborhood, and community life to transform research into social and educational change.
