DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This bulletin is the second of a cooperative series sponsored by the National Committee on Research in Secondary Education. With the profession of education demanding research as a basis for adaptation of school procedures, research is being undertaken by an increasing number of agencies and is rapidly involving school principals and classroom teachers. The Bureau of Education regards this tendency as wholesome and is seeking to encourage it by lending its facilities for research to educational organizations. The purpose of this bulletin is to give definite help to the principal and teacher who wish to investigate some phase of secondary school work. The conditions essential to scientific research will be briefly stated in language as nontechnical as possible, and certain types of research problems will be briefly discussed. Finally, some helps will be given on the method of reporting the results of research. Topics covered in this bulletin include: (1) Introduction; (2) Conditions essential to scientific research; (3) The qualifications of the research worker; (4) Types of research problems; (5) The questionnaire; (6) The report; and (7) Summary of suggestions and directions. A bibliography is included. (Contains 17 footnotes.) [Best copy available has been provided.].

Most striking is how useful this book is because it is really grounded in educational research. It is very well written and quite relevant for educational researchers or for the student hoping to become one." -PsycCRITIQUES/American Psychological Association "I applaud the authors for their attempt to cover a wide range of material. The straightforward language of the book helps make the material understandable for readers." -Journal of MultiDisciplinary Evaluation

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →You don't need a tweed jacket to be a researcher—in thousands of schools across North America, practising teachers conduct studies on best practices, alternative approaches, and effective learning strategies. Classroom teachers have experiences and opportunities unavailable to researchers in a university setting, and action research—site-based, teacher-conducted research—can have a valuable impact on the educational community. Yet many teachers don't see their work as real research, and many other teachers have great ideas for research projects but don't know where to begin. For these teachers, Engaging in Action Research demystifies the world of educational research and provides support, guidance, and encouragement. From creating a research plan to reporting findings, this book provides step-by-step instructions to help teachers conduct research projects in the classroom, using strategies that work. Get ready to investigate, analyze, and share!
