About the Book

Research in Education

Educational Research encompasses many different studies all of which attempt to better understand and improve the learning and educational process. Good education research is a matter not only of sound procedures but also of beneficial aims and results; our ultimate aim as researchers and educators is to serve people's well-being. For their research to be deemed good in a strong sense, education researchers must be able to articulate some sound connection between their work and a robust and justifiable conception of human well-being. As a student, teacher, or administrator, consider how many times you have heard, “evidence-based practice” or “according to the research.” It seems that every new idea in education is research-based, but what does that really mean? This overview is a summary of important concepts and considerations related to research in education. This book is all about different educational systems in different periods and different cultures.
