These and many other research reports can be accessed at hps://praconerledaconresearch.com. You can also access a range of resources on the website including; webinars on topics such as research methods, mulmodality and ‘What is PLAR?’ and an eGuide on mulmodal reporng. In a follow-­‐up arcle we will describe more of the resourceful research projects carried out by teachers to find ways to improve their pracce, with a parcular focus on those working in adult literacies. We will then be able to explain some of the fundamental principles underlying PLAR as a praccal form of ethnographic research that can have far reaching impact in current pracce.
