Reviews
“In its journey of becoming a Developing Nation, Bangladesh’s need for research-based decision making is of immense importance. Strongly based on a carefully selected range of studies, 'Engaging in Educational Research: Revisiting Policy and Practice in Bangladesh' is a cutting-edge publication with contributions from a promising group of visionary researchers at home and abroad. This book includes, among other themes, three key areas of education, along with a wide range of issues around Bangladesh and the contemporary world. I firmly believe that this book will play a significant role in providing insights into the complex nature of engagement of different stakeholders and provide a clear guideline towards quality education. I anticipate that the readers will be highly benefited, which in turn will facilitate early achievement of Sustainable Development Goals.” (Professor Dr. Siddiqur Rahman, Member, Bangladesh National Education Policy 2010 Formulation Committee)
