The authors offer simple steps to ensure that you ask the key questions in the most effective way possible.

Doing Your Education Research Project Avis

'Key strengths of this text are its clearly structured layout, and accessible style. The introductory chapter effectively updates this book, locating it firmly in the current complex and changing environment.

Written specifically for the practitioner-researcher, the book makes clear and explicit links between the practices of teaching, and the practices of education research. Short case studies throughout are realistic in their message, and will be instantly recognisable to teachers at a range of stages in their careers.

It's good to see a user-friendly approach to quantitative data analysis for non-mathematicians; something that's not often found in a book of this nature.'

-- Dr. Mary McAteer, Director, MaST Programme
