Description: Written for the introductory research methods course often required in most colleges of education in the United States, this up-to-date, highly readable volume takes an even handed approach to the different types of educational research in order to enable readers to become critical consumers of research and potential users of research. It also helps prepare the student to summarize research literature, write a research proposal, develop a data collection instrument and test an idea empirically.
