Product Description Educational Research: Quantitative, Qualitative, and Mixed Approaches by R. Burke Johnson and Larry Christensen offers a comprehensive, easily digestible introduction to research methods. Readers will develop an understanding of the multiple research methods and strategies used in education and related fields, including how to read and critically evaluate published research and how to write a proposal, construct a questionnaire, and conduct an empirical research study on their own. The Seventh Edition maintains the features that made this book a best-seller, including attention-grabbing chapter-opening vignettes, lively examples that engage reader interest, a conversational and friendly writing style, and more. With the support of this highly readable text, readers will transform into critical consumers and users of research. Review "The innovative structure of Educational Research paves the way for students to build a cohesive understanding of the research process and learn to appreciate various approaches to research design without positioning any one paradigm as the ‘default.’" -- Christy Galletta Horner "Educational Research provides students the introduction that is needed for them to be both consumers and producers of educational research." -- David Schmid "Educational Research is an excellent textbook that meets the needs for a course based on CACREP standards. Extremely reader friendly with helpful supplemental materials." -- Nancy L. Leech "Educational Research contains invaluable wisdom and advice from leading scholars. It is accessible to a wide audience, including management scholars, undergraduate and graduate students majoring in business, and working professionals in the field of management and marketing.
