Paperback / softback

Description

"The book provides a reference point for beginning educational researchers to grasp the most pertinent elements of designing and conducting research…" —Megan Tschannen-Moran, The College of William & Mary   Quantitative Research in Education: A Primer, Second Edition is a brief and practical text designed to allay anxiety about quantitative research.

Award-winning authors Wayne K. Hoy and Curt M. Adams first introduce readers to the nature of research and science, and then present the meaning of concepts and research problems as they dispel notions that quantitative research is too difficult, too theoretical, and not practical.

Rich with concrete examples and illustrations, the Primer emphasizes conceptual understanding and the practical utility of quantitative methods while teaching strategies and techniques for developing original research hypotheses.   The Second Edition includes suggestions for empirical investigation and features a new section on self-determination theory, examples from the latest research, a concluding chapter illustrating the practical applications of quantitative research, and much more.

This accessible Primer is perfect for students and researchers who want a quick understanding of the process of scientific inquiry and who want to learn how to effectively create and test ideas.
