We have used this text for several years.
a fantastic book for the dissertation programme.
Easyread and understandable context.
Easy to follow and student friendly.
This book takes a different approach. Through selected published research articles using different research methods, readers can learn, not only how to evaluate research, but also the way to present and apply that research method.
The textbook is very interesting, its content is systematic, organized and comprehensive, however, its content covers more than what is planned for the course, thus, it is recommended for some points and topics for extra reading for master students. Moreover, it is very useful for researchers and research reviewers and faculty who look forward to have comprehensive and valid work.
This text could be useful for students who have limited exprienece in evaluating and analysing data. It takes the reader through a thorough process and uses language that aids understanding & engagement in a field that can be very anxiety provoking. Well structured with helpful prompts and tasks to reinforce learning as the student progresses
Well suited to the needs of the course.
One of the few texts available on evaluating research. I find it very useful for teaching to understand and consider evidence from research.
Well written. Presents methodology with a slightly different slant than most textbooks.
Good review of basics for evaluating research methods.
