Editorial Reviews

Product Description
This education research text takes a gentle approach, laced with examples and summarizing charts, tables and diagrams. A simple, direct writing style and two-colour design add to its appeal. It includes end-of-chapter application exercises forcing students to apply the information presented to a research project of their own choosing. This second edition contains two new chapters on ethics and research and doing research in schools. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

3.0 out of 5 stars Helpful for exactly what it is intended for..., August 11, 2002
I wouldn't say that I read the book cover to cover, but for a class textbook in graduate school, I think it was very helpful for its intended purpose. I used it where I need it (where I needed brushing up in certain areas of statistics especially) - and I think this book is a good reference book. The indexes are great, and the workbook actually does a good job of clarifying certain aspects of research that I was unceratin on.

1.0 out of 5 stars misleading!! for international use only! Not for USA.
There is no picture of the text because on the front it says it's the international student version for use outside the US. Very misleading information on the site.
