This volume provides graduate students and experienced researchers with a comprehensive guide to applying qualitative and mixed methods in classroom-based research on second language learning and teaching.

In addition to coverage of methods for collecting and analyzing data, Researching Second Language Classrooms offers in-depth discussions on a range of practical, theoretical, methodological, and ethical issues that can arise when conducting research in language classrooms. Throughout the volume, the emphasis on building both theoretical knowledge and practical skills helps to facilitate understanding of how qualitative and quantitative methods can complement each other. Each chapter includes examples drawn from a range of research settings as well as tasks for practicing data collection and analysis techniques, questions to prompt reflection, and suggestions for further reading.

This book will serve as a valuable text for research methods courses as well as a resource for scholars and researchers of applied linguistics, SLA, and language learning and teaching.
