Hello Alan,
 
You say:
 
 "You have to delete this section and completely redo it".
 
Isn't this the language of power, not invitation?
 
When we click on to Jack's site or this discussion site we know the paradigms and approaches they favour.
We may not wholly agree with all we read, but take and learn what we can.
There is space for folks like me who approach AR and values from slightly different perspectives.
 
I for one have benefited enormously from these conversations, and pass it on to students.
I have found Jack generous in his willingness to share his learning, and web of contacts.
 
I'm sure Jack will welcome additions to the resources.
 
Regards,
Brian

Subject: Re: Loving Wisdom in Explanations of Educational Influence - developing a cooperative enquiry?

Re- I would then welcome
suggestions on the resources might be improved.

I would completely redo this section of ActionResearch.net

I would delete anything about inclusionality and would replace it with resources that problematise and look critically on things like the different meanings, implications and theories of dialogue, co-enquiries, dialectical qualitative transformation, reflection, the meanings, theories and implications of dialectics, the history of dialectics from Plato to post-Marx and the different approaches of dialectics, autoethnography, narrative enquiry, poetic language, education for dialogue, democracy and pluralism, the problems with action and practitioner research and reflection, the problems with language and linguistic assertions, Dewey, Freire, Marxist methodology.

There is so much and I have a lot of personal resources to contribute.

As it is you, you may wish to look for resources that problematise and look critically at visual narratives.

The important thing is to have esources that problematise methodologies, innovations and ideas.  And not claim to have an 'inclusional logic' that you cannot verbalise but hope the youtube clips can explain it nonverbally as your resource section presently states in the resources to supervised PhD candidates from Decemberc and October 2006.  This is not good enough.

You have to delete this section and completely redo it.

I'll send round the url to the  updated resources as soon as I've done it and would then welcome  suggestions on the resources might be improved.
