A Practical Guide to Teaching Research Methods in Education: Lesson Plans and Advice from Faculty is an example of university faculty identifying and resolving a problem found in their practice of teaching. The book offers a wealth of pedagogical lessons that connect the concepts, processes, and tools of research methodology to student backgrounds and needs to enhance understanding and success. Every teacher of research methods will benefit from this professional development." -- Jill A. Perry, PhD (she/her/hers), Associate Professor of Practice, Dept of Educational Foundations, Organizations, and Policy Studies, University of Pittsburgh, USA
"A Practical Guide to Teaching Research Methods in Education: Lesson Plans and Advice from Faculty is an essential contribution to the toolkit of education faculty. This volume spans qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods, and provides faculty with expert advice and plans to engage students. From the classroom novice to seasoned faculty, A Practical Guide to Teaching Research Methods in Education: Lesson Plans and Advice from Faculty is a welcome addition to the library of educators invested in instructing students embarking on their research journeys." -- Richard J. Reddick, Senior Vice Provost for Curriculum and Enrollment, and Dean of Undergraduate Studies, Distinguished Service Professor, Department of Educational Leadership and Policy, The University of Texas at Austin, USA
"As someone who has extensively studied effective teaching across research universities and community colleges, I believe this book serves as an exemplary resource for any faculty member who has struggled with how to get across complex ideas to novice and aspiring researchers. The unique combination of providing a lesson plan that instructors can pick up and immediately use with the discussion of the intellectual journey of developing the lesson is exactly what we need to improve teaching and learning in higher education research classes, dissertations, and research projects." -- Audrey J. Jaeger, Executive Director, Belk Center for Community College Leadership and Research, W. Dallas Herring Professor of Community College Education, USA
"A Practical Guide to Teaching Research Methods in Education: Lesson Plans and Advice from Faculty is bound to be a seminal resource for faculty and students alike. The book goes step-by-step through the research process. It starts with when students are working on getting clear about the problem they are researching and works its way to when scholars are identifying the implications of their findings for research, practice, and policy. The inclusion of lesson plans will provide faculty with an incredible resource as they teach and guide their students through the research process. This is the type of book that one can use during a course and subsequently return to again and again as a resource." -- Milagros Castillo-Montoya, Associate Professor of Higher Education and Student Affairs, Co-PI, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Grant, USA A Practical Guide to Teaching Research Methods in Education: Lesson Plans and Advice from Faculty is an example of university faculty identifying and resolving a problem found in their practice of teaching.

"Over a 40-year faculty career, I co-learned with my students, especially those students designing, conducting, and completing their dissertation research. This book, written with insight into the teaching of the research process, provides faculty with support for co-learning, particularly the importance of knowing one's own research perspective and the importance of understanding student goals and passions for creating new knowledge. The theoretical and practical examples provided in this book are invaluable to all involved in the research process." -- Caroline Sotello Viernes Turner, Professor Emerita, Higher Education and Ethics, Arizona State University, USA; Past President, Association for the Study of Higher Education
