Abstract

Research can be defined as a systematic inquiry or investigation, through the process of which data is collected, analyzed and interpreted with the aim of understanding, describing, predicting or controlling a phenomenon. The definition by itself has a complex ontological and epistemological background, whose interpretation lead to different research paradigms such as positivism, post-positivism, interpretivism/constructivism and the critical theory. In that respect, the aim of the present study is to critically analyze a qualitative research article on teacher education and curriculum with respect to the paradigm it adopts. For the analysis of the article, the description of the critical research paradigm by Allison and Pomeroy (2000) adapted from Guba & Lincoln (1994) is used as criteria. The findings indicate that the selected article adheres to the analysis criteria. The findings are discussed in the conclusion section.
