Foundations of education research

Understanding theoretical components

Abstract

There are lots of challenges facing
novice researchers and graduate students
while committing to a research design. It is
common to hear that graduate students
spend countless hours learning the meaning
of research components and terms. Also, it
is not surprising that there are many
professors who struggle with finding a good
research book because most textbooks seem
to lack practical models, examples or
discussions to guide novice researchers to
understand a very wide range of research in
education. Dr. Egbert and Sanden’s
Foundations of Education Research:
Understanding Theoretical Components
fills the gap with this short, practical book
containing literally examples and templates
to steer both beginning and established
researchers.
