Hello Colleagues,
I want to let you know that the 5th edition of *Educational Research:
Quantitative, Qualitative, and Mixed Approaches* is now available.
Go here (http://www.sagepub.com/bjohnson5e/study/default.htm) to see the
many resources available for your students; just go to any of the 22
chapters to see the multiple resources (full lectures, journal articles,
concept maps, practice quizzes, answers to review questions, video links,
etc.). For the many instructor resources (powerpoints, 1600 multiple choice
test bank, etc.) you can obtain a password through the website.
In the new edition, I have added an early chapter on action research
(Chapter 3) and I discuss action research at the end of the remaining
chapters to make the material "relevant." I added a little more material on
qualitative research to give it full balance. I added a few new terms such
as RCT, autoethnography, nonmaleficence, and beneficence, and I updated all
chapters to reflect current thinking in educational research.
