This book is the first in a series. It focuses on how people can fulfil their responsibility to live as fully as possible the values that give their lives and work meaning and purpose, and that contribute to the flourishing of humanity and their own development. The importance of researching one s own practice to improve it is highlighted in terms of sharing and creating the individual s values based explanations for their educational influences in their own learning, in the learning of others and in the learning of the social formations that they are part of, and that influence their practice and understandings. Each individual uses their methodological inventiveness to generate their own living-theory methodology in the generation of their living-educational-theory. This methodology can include insights from Autoethnography, Self study, Narrative Research and Action Research. The importance of clarifying and communicating, as explanatory principles, the meanings of embodied expressions of the individual s ontological and relational values is focused on exploring the implications of asking, researching and answering questions of the kind, How do I improve what I am doing? The explanations of educational influences in learning include insights from theories that analyse the sociohistorical and sociocultural influences in the practice and understandings of the self-study researcher.
