商品簡介
Providing introductory guidance to the applied research process in a simple and nonstatistical format, Houff (education, Mary Washington University) overviews education research, identifies the types and purposes of research designs, and explains how and why research is used in education. Readers are then guided through the process of identifying a problem, compiling a literature review that synthesizes research related to the problem, and developing a product that addresses the problem. An appendix provides a complete sample applied research project. The book is for teachers, administrators, and professional developers. There is no subject index.
