<P style="MARGIN: 0px"> <B>This title is only available as a loose-leaf version with Pearson eText.</B> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> <I>Applying Educational Research</I> focuses on <B>relating research to practice</B>, helping educators see the relevance of research to their daily work.  This goal of making research relevant is accomplished by focusing on current “problems of practice.” Each chapter highlights a set of important issues for teachers, students, and schools–-issues like teacher evaluation, the effectiveness of close-reading strategies, and the use of computer-supported instruction.  The research examples and articles in the chapter then address these issues, providing students a meaningful context for the information they are learning about research methods. Through this approach, students learn about the research process and current research on topics that directly impact practice.</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> <B> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">From reviews of the text:</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> </B> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">The writing style of the textbook is excellent . . . . Writing clarity for content builds from one paragraph to another. . . . The Gall, Gall, and Borg textbook is the only text I would consider for [my Master’s-level research course]. Because the authors are scholars and practitioners, they bring a depth and range to the topic of educational research that is unsurpassed."</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">            --Vikki K. Collins, Troy University</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">"The writing style is very clear. I find it easy to read and navigate among the chapters. Most graduate students in my class will not have any problems reading the book. The authors provide a very gentle introduction to educational research. . . . The authors adopt a balanced view of educational research. . . . They have explained most of the quantitative analyses used in educational research, and they have explicated the major theories of qualitative research. They have introduced the research techniques in a clear manner accessible to a broad audience inside and outside of the education field."</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">            --Xiaofeng Steven Lui, University of South Carolina</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">0133831574 / 9780133831573 Applying Educational Research: How to Read, Do, and Use Research to Solve Problems of Practice, Loose-Leaf Version with Video-Enhanced Pearson eText -- Access Card Package </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">Package consists of:     </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">0132868636 / 9780132868631 Applying Educational Research: How To Read, Do, and Use Research To Solve Problems of Practice, Loose-Leaf Version   </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px">0133398811 / 9780133398816 Applying Educational Research: How To Read, Do, and Use Research To Solve Problems of Practice, Pearson eText -- Access Card</P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0px"> </P>
