Beskrivning

'This work will be of immense value to those who are undertaking a significant post-graduate research study in Education. The array of impressive contributors writes in an accessible and clear manner, and brings the attention of the reader to both technical and conceptual terms. This book certainly will be an addition to my own reference library'
- Susan Groundwater-Smith, Faculty of Education and Social Work, University of Sydney

This straightforward and jargon-free book will provide students with the theoretical understandings, practical knowledge and skills they need to carry out independent research. The international contributors identify key research methodologies, data collection tools and analysis methods, and focus on the direct comparisons between them.

Each chapter sets out the strengths and weaknesses of a key research method by:

identifying specific research designs
presenting a series of relevant data collection tools
highlighting which analytical methods which can be used.

The chapters cover the full range of methods and methodologies, including internet research, mixed methods research and the various modes of ethnographic research.

Additional online materials are also available including links to useful journal articles enabling further reading and exploration of each chapter.

This is a key book for M-level students and other postgraduates within Education and Educational Research Methods courses.
