Descrição do Produto

This is the perfect guide to engaging with educational research. It explores how to read journal articles critically; what key academic terms really mean; different approaches to educational research, how they are used and what they aim to uncover, and how high quality findings can be meaningful for teaching and learning.

This second edition includes:

  • A new chapter on understanding quantitative research methods
  • Deeper discussion of qualitative and mixed methods research, and how to avoid bias
  • Expanded coverage on how to cite the work of others, understanding research ethics and advice on academic writing
  • Enhanced chapter features offering critical commentaries, advice on research basics and engaging case studies
  • A new glossary of key terms

Supported by examples that demonstrate the use (and misuse) of research in education, this is essential reading for initial teacher education students at all levels and students on any undergraduate or postgraduate course underpinned by educational research literature.

Dr James Williams is an Associate Professor/Reader in Science Education and Communication at the University of Sussex.
