Essentials of Research Methods in Education

By Harriett Moore and Scott Buckler

This book provides pragmatic advice and guidance on how to undertake educational research.

Using the concept of research as a 'quest', it takes you on a journey from planning stages, through data collection to analysis, to writing up your findings, and at each stage, exploring the principles and practice that can support your own research projects.

This second edition has been carefully revised throughout to offer:
A more logical structure and better signposting of key topics to support your understanding of the research process. Important ethical considerations throughout to demonstrate how research ethics are vital at every step. Engaging and thought-provoking commentaries on how to progress in your 'research quest'. Enhanced granular detail on different methodological approaches. This is essential reading for students on all education courses that include a research methods module or project.
