Future directions for education policy research and language-based methods

Abstract

This chapter brings together the key contributions that the individual chapters within this volume make at both a methodological and substantive level. Specifically, we offer a summary of our interpretations of the key points from the individual chapters. Then, we identify the methodological contributions that readers might derive when engaging with this volume. Notably, we highlight the possibilities at the intersection of education policy and discourse analysis. We thus consider the key contributions the individual authors make to education policy conversations. We conclude by noting possibilities for future directions for policy scholars interested in taking up language-based methods writ large.
