Más información sobre el libro
The book enables students to become intelligent consumers of educational research and introduces basic research principles to those who may eventually be involved in research in their work.

Students learn to analyze and evaluate research, and judge the usefulness of the findings for educational practice. There is extensive use of aides to facilitate student learning, including chapter roadmaps and concept maps, study questions, a book website, consumer tips, examples and excerpts from published articles (including seven full length articles), and author reflections.
