Research methods that prioritise student experiences give students a voice and can provide new insights into how teachers' efforts are experienced by those who receive them--their students. Grounded theory methods can be used to create theory with students to project their voices through a research process that is explained and exemplified in this…

This grounded theory study examined the changes to margin by hybridization.…
