Product Description

<>This book educates students to become intelligent consumers of educational research and introduces basic research principles to those who may eventually use research in their work.

 

Principles for conducting research and criteria for evaluating its overall credibility are presented in a concise manner, with numerous excerpts from published studies, to enable students to  learn to read, understand, and evaluate research, and judge the usefulness of the findings for educational practice. There is extensive use of aides to facilitate student learning, including chapter roadmaps and concept maps, study questions, a book website, consumer tips, over 90 examples from published articles (including eight full length articles), and author reflections. The Fifth Edition includes a more extensive presentation of experimental and quasi-experimental design, consistent with the current emphasis on conducting ?scientific research,? qualitative data analysis, effect size, and a new chapter devoted to mixed-method studies and action research.

1 out of 5 stars Never again with vana

I will never purchase from vana11 again and I recommend you don't either. Wrong item was received, regardless of who's error it was- they should take the book back since I paid for shipping both ways. They were IMPOSSIBLE and rude to deal with and would only give me 80% of my money back. There was no photo for this book listing and they sent me a 18 year old version. I contacted them immediately upon receiving the book and still only an 80% refund after some very rude comments.

1 out of 5 stars Lied about the book

I was expecting the 5th edition of this book, however I was sent a 1st edition published in 1992. I am very dissapointed since I paid full price. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER!!!

1 out of 5 stars Bad

I never received the merchandise and the seller never acknowledged my emails about the order. This was a very bad experieince!

5 out of 5 stars Recommending this textbook

This book not only provides a thorough discussion of the topics included, but also provides a wide variety of tools and resources for the reader. It is visually packed with attractive text features, outlines before each chapter, definitions enhanced on the side of the pages, wonderful examples along the way, tables, consumer tips at the end, websites, etc. This book becomes a teacher all by itself.

5 out of 5 stars Speedy Delivery

I had no complaints at all. The book was in excellent condition.
