An Introduction to Educational Research: Connecting Methods to Practice aims to offer a balanced discussion across research methodologies and to present the basics of the research process in a way that is relevant to students currently immersed in professional practice. Recognizing the relationship between problems of practice and educational research, An Introduction to Educational Research adopts a practice-first orientation, engaging practitioner-scholars by providing examples relevant to their work. This text provides students with an introduction to educational research in a way that aligns with their professional experiences and illuminates the ever-present connections between these experiences and educational research, to help them see research as a tool they can use to improve classrooms, schools, districts, and educational organizations.
