Understanding Educational Research Summary

Understanding Educational Research by David Scott

Quite a lot of texts look at research method, but this is rare in focusing on epistemology

With more students than ever on higher level courses including taught doctorates, this comes at a very good time. Even MA/Meds now often have a taught research methods component
