Overall Best Work for Study of Educational Research Methods,
By Lectio Veritas (Richmond, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Research in Education: A Conceptual Introduction (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
As a university instructor who has used this text, I would recommend it for its thoroughness and attention to detail in the teaching of educational research methods. Most students are intimidated by research courses. However, this book lays out the reasons for research and the ways of approaching research problems in a step-by-step fashion that is both scholarly and common sense. It is also a great resource to have on one's library shelf. I highly recommend it it for graduate research courses.

This review is from: Research in Education: A Conceptual Introduction (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
The book has a nice hardcover and good quality paper, as the majority of american text-books. The index is very detailed. The graphic models used to explain concepts helped me a lot for the simplicity and clarity. I didn't like the sharp distinctions between qualitative and quantitative approaches in research, I prefer the authors that pose arguments for the common ground that scientific inquiries share between them.

This review is from: Research in Education: A Conceptual Introduction (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
If a person is doing a thesis, or disertation, then this book will answer questions about each of the 5 chapters and all those little details that a not taught but are required by your committee.
