Pre-service and in-service teachers and school leaders., This text brings research alive for educators by introducing readers to people who actually "do" research. It is intended for instructors who emphasize teaching students how to locate, read, and interpret and apply the findings of educational research studies. The revision addresses how to design and conduct a research study in more detail. The text includes numerous recent, published research articles involving high-interest problems of educational practice. The chapters, which treat quantitative, qualitative, and applied forms of educational research, stand alone, allowing instructors to choose those they want to cover. Designed for courses focused primarily on applying, rather than conducting research, this text includes 13 actual research articles, reprinted in their entirety. The primary author of each article then offers original commentary on his/her piece. Through this format, the text presents a comprehensive explanation of the methodologies used by present-day researchers, data-collection challenges, and the meaning of the results. The book makes no assumptions about readers' prior knowledge of research or statistics. This text builds students' confidence so that they are able to successfully read research reports and research. Through its clear yet scholarly treatment and numerous examples of educational research the text addresses the learning and application needs of an increasingly wider spectrum of students and practitioners in the field of education. For the first time, readerswill see the relevance of research to educational practice., "An Orphan's Heart" is the real-life story of Ellen Rodgers, who with the broken spirit of an orphan and the soul of a gypsy, travels far and wide searching to ease the loneliness that fate has burrowed into her heart. She travels by wagon-train from her empty home in Mississippi to a promising life in Alabama. Not finding happiness there, she ventures back to Mississippi only to realize "you can never go home again." Following a great adventure of a young woman traveling alone across the rugged Deep South in the 1880's, she finds her way to Texas and begins her new life as a wife and mother, only to have everything ripped from her in a shattering turn of events.
