The argument here is that "the professional workforce of education, from early years to university, remains generally unrepresentative of the wider population," and so "The production of educational knowledge is, therefore, predominantly the outcome of the collective contributions of a partial and skewed sample." One wonder what the research that led to, say, social networking would have turned out had it not been led by the luminaries at Harvard and MIT. And I wonder how much 'educational research' is created and marketed for the purpose of preserving the advantage of this elite.
