Summary:Doing Research in Education: A Beginner's Guide is written for the novice education researcher. It offers practical advice and guidance for each step of the research process including choosing what to research, formulating a research question, deciding on a suitable research methodology and writing a thesis. A range of research methodologies are explored within the book and each associated chapter outlines the suitability and applicability of that methodology and offers concrete suggestions for its use. Further chapters are dedicated to navigating the relevant research literature, ethics, researching vulnerable groups, the use of technology, conducting research through Irish and connecting research to teaching practice. The book's chapters are written by experienced education researchers, each of whom has extensive experience of guiding students through their first education research project as well as publishing widely within education themselves.
