What is Critical Realism?

What is Critical Realism? helps you see that there’s more to the world than what we can see or measure. It’s about looking below the surface to understand why things happen, not just what happens. In education, this means learning isn’t only about marks or lessons — it’s about how people, ideas, and systems work together to shape what we experience in classrooms and beyond.

This short book breaks down big ideas into simple, real examples that make sense. You’ll discover how deeper causes shape what we see every day, and how understanding those layers can help teachers and students make learning fairer, stronger, and more real.

Read the book. Explore the ideas. Take the course — and start seeing the world differently.
