  <abstract>"This completely rewritten and updated fifth edition of Research Methods in Education covers the whole range of methods currently employed by educational researchers. It continues to be the standard text for students undertaking educational research whether at undergraduate or postgraduate level." "This text provides both the theory that underpins research methodology and very practical guidelines for conducting educational research. It is essential reading for both the professional researcher and the consumer of research - the teacher, educational administrator, adviser, and all those concerned with educational research and practice."--Jacket.</abstract>
