Content Description. E-Research in Educational Contexts: The Roles of Technologies, Ethics and Social Media, edited by Jocelyn Wishart and Michael Thomas. First published in 2017, this paperback copy was first issued in 201. The book examines the changing nature of educational research in the digital age and the opportunities and challenges created by emerging technologies and online research methods. The contributors consider both practical research applications and important methodological and ethical questions surrounding digital data collection, online environments, mobile technologies, and relationships between researchers and participants. Individual chapters examine children's knowledge-making dialogues in Minecraft; digital storytelling in technology-enhanced learning for children with autism; the online delivery of multimedia research scenarios; website-based commenting as an e-research method; hermeneutics and empathy in online learning environments; and ethical frameworks for research involving mobile learning. Originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Research & Method in Education, the collection will be of particular interest to educational researchers, graduate students, and scholars working in digital education, research methodology, technology-enhanced learning, and research ethics.

This book explores the impact of e-research in education and the opportunities presented by a new generation of research approaches and tools. ‘E-research’ is an umbrella term that encompasses all digital research methods used for data collection and analysis including those involving handheld mobile devices. This is a current concern as the emergence of online tools that enable people to collaborate, create, and share information has led to the widespread use of these new digital research methods. Indeed, new tools and technologies are emerging almost daily and are being taken up by researchers for their ease of data collection and analysis.
As a result the book investigates the implications of how we conceptualise educational research in the digital age. In addressing a range of key themes, from the ethics of e-research to the relationships between researchers and participants, the book presents original studies from a variety of educational contexts where digital tools are being used, and should be of value to postgraduate students, academic researchers, and policy makers. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Research & Method in Education.
