- Publisher's Summary
- "Qualitative Research in Education: A User's Guide, 2nd Edition" is a core textbook for graduate courses in educational research. As with the first edition, the book will provide readers with a blend of practical and theoretical information. The use of real-world examples and illustrations will help users grasp abstract ideas and apply them to their research. The 2nd Edition includes: a streamlined organization, consolidating similar topics to eliminate replication in the first 5 chapters; new and updated examples to highlight the 'how-tos' of doing qualitative research, along with new ways of thinking about qualitative research and information on new technologies; a new chapter on ethics, pulling together information from various spots in the existing chapters, to focus on this important and current topic; and, a new brief Student Study Site that includes sample forms, sample projects, and Web resources.
