Recenzii
“This text will definitely be useful in providing students with a solid orientation to research design particularly in quantitative research”
“Precision, precision, precision! I think this is a must have companion text for graduate students who have to complete a thesis or dissertation. The author does an outstanding job of cataloging and describing difficult research methods terms in a clear and concise way.”
“Greatest strength is the comprehensiveness of the treatment”
“A reference point for beginning educational researchers to grasp the most pertinent elements of designing and conducting research”
