Customer Reviews
Average Rating: Rating: - An Invaluable guide for educational research. This is an excellent text for anyone who has to conduct educational research. I had to purchase it as part of my MEd program and haven't regretted it. The information is clear and accessible. The text is enhanced with a plethora of annotated charts, images and tables. Each chapter begins with a beautiful photograph from a famous film with a humorous caption underneath it. Chapter objectives and summaries are included at the start and ending of each chapter. There are exhaustive appendixes and references. Self-tests, an excellent glossary and thorough indexes help to make this book an educational researcher's best friend. Rating: - Thorough explanation of research techniques This book provides a great overview of basic statistical concepts as well as experimental design. This is one that will stay on my shelves for a resource. Rating: - Good choice for education majors - easier to understand Education majors at the graduate level will appreciate the straight forward approach of this book. Helps to take the "mystery" out of research with a down to earth approach while still getting the important points across to the reader. Rating: - Average Textbook This edition has some minor changes from the 6th and 7th edition, mainly just page numbers. If you can find the 6th or 7th edition cheaper, it is vitural the same book Rating: - Easy Reading Research Learning how to decipher the technical jargon surrounding research is never easy. This book makes it easy. Along with thorough explanations and an abundance of examples, there is a bit of humor tossed in. The humor helps break up the intense explanations. There are also many charts and graphs that help synthesize the information into an easy learning format. I would recommend this book for anyone who has to learn about research.
