Publisher's Synopsis
For courses in introductory educational research that take a consumer-of-research approach. Also appropriate for master's level research courses taught in general or specialty area curriculum.
Intended to prepare teachers as consumers rather than as producers of educational research, this text provides the basic knowledge and skills to read, interpret, evaluate, and write about quantitative and qualitative educational research. It allows teachers to make program, curriculum, and instructional decisions based on research results. The authors' goal is to guide readers to think as research consumers through directed learning activities based on current integrated language arts principles and practices.
