Introduction to Research in Education 8th. Educational research is a vigorous, dynamic enterprise. We are amazed at not only how much more knowledge there is in the fi eld but also how many new ways of seeking knowledge are included. At the same time, there is more technology to focus, simplify, and organize research in education. Many changes have taken place since the fi rst edition was published in 1972. Never once did the phrase “qualitative research” occur. The only research we included that is now classifi ed as qualitative was historical research. The current edition includes four chapters on qualitative research, including a new one on the types of qualitative research and a chapter titled “Mixed Methods Research,” which discusses combining quantitative and qualitative methods.
Introduction to Research in Education 8th. Not only is knowledge expanding but also tools that facilitate the pursuit of knowledge are expanding our capacity to generate new knowledge with greater precision and less effort. Among these tools are computers, the Internet, and indexing and abstracting databases. The latter necessitated a major rewrite of our chapter on searching for related literature. This endeavor, once a diffi cult to organize, time-consuming, imprecise task, can now be accomplished quickly, precisely, and completely through searching electronic databases. Through all this we have endeavored to continue to present a text that is reader friendly and to make even advanced concepts understandable. We think the fact that this book lasted through seven editions so far is reasonable evidence that we have succeeded. Introduction to Research in Education 8th.
