Recenzii
Its accessibility, lucidity and brevity are real strengths, as so many titles in the field of doing classroom research, though often very good, are frankly way too detailed and arcane for the needs of busy classroom practitioners – they need the essential basics, framed simply but not simplistically. I think Clive manages this so well – he’s always written with such spare beauty.
Barry HymerIf I was back at university or doing classroom research again, this is a book I would welcome in my collection. It gives a good understanding of the purpose of research, both qualitative and quantitative, and who benefits. There are excellent links to inquiry and reading around the topics. I found it an easy read and not too long - just under 100 pages - making it very easy to dip in and out of as appropriate. There were useful examples linked to the content and drawn from actual research projects so carrying validity in the eye of the reader. This allows the reader to identify where they are and the best way forward in terms of research.
The summary of key points at the end of chapters was helpful and made easy reference points to go back to. Overall, a very well-structured book.
