<br/><br/> This title offers a highly accessible, clear and engaging introduction to research in education, which has been carefully and extensively developed to fully meet the needs of those studying in education and related fields.  Based on Keith Punch's 2019 bestselling Introduction to Social Research Methods, this book introduces the research process in a range of educational contexts.  In this updated second edition, you'll find guidance on every stage of research, with chapters on developing research questions, doing a literature review, collecting data, analysing your findings and writing it all up. With a new chapter on ethics and additional coverage of Internet research and mixing methods, the second edition contains everything you'll need if you're studying on a research methods course or doing a research project for yourself. Introduction to Research Methods in Education provides you with: balanced coverage of the range of methods employed by educational researchers; practical advice on collecting and analysing qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods data; a range of examples from student projects to show how research is done in real-life educational settings; a companion website with additional resources for lecturers and students. --
