Abstract
Objectives or purposes: To relate the pursuit of truth in consequential education research to the pursuit of truth in consequential Living Educational Theory Research.
Theoretical frameworks: This paper is intended as a contribution to responses to the theoretical framework proposed by Rich Milner in his 2023 AERA Presidential Address on ‘Interrogating Consequential Education Research in Pursuit of Truth’. As a member of AERA from the UK, I continue to be appalled by the mass shootings in America. The mass shootings are on the rise and as I write on 15th April 2023 there have been at least 146 mass shootings across the US so far this year. Milner highlighted this seemingly intractable cultural problem in the USA. I make this point to emphasise that there are educational issues of learning, with values of human flourishing in the USA, which many other countries and cultures are avoiding. Hence, as well as learning from educational research in the USA it may be that this response is a contribution to educational learning in the USA.
