Hallmark Features
  • Quantitative Foundation. There is a vogue to toss qualitative methods into foundational texts but this book makes no bones that quantitative methods remain the foundation for educational research.
  • Practical, question-driven approach. Many research texts assume that students will have to write and complete a research proposal. This book uses a well vetted approach in which students learn to write a single question and pick the right methods for answering that question – practical, student-friendly, and easily applied.
  • Author platform. Spaulding, Lodico, and Voegtle collectively teach 11 sections of ed. research to first year master;s student. They are very active in professional organizations (AEA and AERA), giving seminars on methods of teaching educational research. Spaulding conducts executive education classes for principals in New York’s public school system.
  • Broad audience reach. This book can be marketed into colleges of education and psychology programs.
