INCLUD-ED, through the critical communicative research perspective aims at having a significant social and political impact on the European educational and social systems, as was achieved in previous FP projects (e.g. Workaló, FP5). The critical communicative perspective arises from different theoretical contributions. The bases of the Critical Communicative Methodology are:
Knowledge Constructed Through Intersubjective Dialogue
Meanings are constructed in interactive communication between people, reaching agreements. The researchers bring their expertise and the recent developments in the scientific community into the dialogue and this is contrasted with what social actors think and experience in their everyday lives.
Including Traditionally Silenced Voices
There is a direct and active participation of the people whose reality is studied throughout the entire research process.
Exclusionary and Transformative Components
Scientific analysis oriented towards identifying strategies that lead to social inclusion (transformative) and those which lead to social exclusion (exclusionary).
Different research techniques:
Statistical analysis
