description This article takes as its starting point earlier research reported by Geoffrey Elliott in 1996.

Through the participantsââ¬â¢ voices and perspectives, the authors identify continuing dissonance and issues of research marginalisation. The discussion also highlights contemporary educational discourse, with its predominant focus upon measurable value at the expense of values, as a key factor in sustaining a culture that is antithetic to thoughtful reflection and research.
