Summary:

Valerie Hall began her Doctorate of Education in 2008 and had a strong interest in developing teaching and learning. She wanted to know how learners could be involved more directly in the observation process to improve the quality of teaching. There were strong policy drivers pushing for the development of the 'expert learner' and student involvement initiatives, so there seemed to be something worth considering. A review of literature soon demonstrated that what little research had been done had been essentially in the compulsory education sector, and had been poorly documented in terms of methodology. Hall's focus was on post-compulsory education, and she used an action research model to work with participants from an `HE in FE' curriculum area.
