Sabine Gerhartz-Reiter – Sage Research Methods Cases, 2017
In the research project which formed part of my PhD study, I dealt with the topic of inequity in education. My main interest was to find out how (formal) educational careers can be fostered even if the starting position within the system is one which makes a successful educational career very difficult. Despite the fact that in the Austrian…

Anderson, Patricia F.; Shannon, Carol; Bickett, Skye; Doucette, Joanne; Herring, Pamela; Kepsel, Andrea; Lyons, Tierney; McLachlan, Scott; Wu, Lin – Research Synthesis Methods, 2018
When the Medical Library Association identified questions critical for the future of the profession, it assigned groups to use systematic reviews to find the answers to these questions. Group 6, whose question was on emerging technologies, recognized early on that the systematic review process would not work well for this question, which looks…

Ryan, Wendy L.; St. Iago-McRae, Ezry – Bioscene: Journal of College Biology Teaching, 2016
Experimentation is the foundation of science and an important process for students to understand and experience. However, it can be difficult to teach some aspects of experimentation within the time and resource constraints of an academic semester. Interactive models can be a useful tool in bridging this gap. This freely accessible simulation…

Manuj Kumar Gokul – Sage Research Methods Cases, 2014
In 2007, I embarked on what turned out to be a 6-year-long PhD study that examined the leadership of teaching and learning through advice and information in school subject teams. Previous research had focused predominantly on formally designated leaders and their interactions with followers in informal contexts. My study focused on both formal and…

Vig, Rozy; Taylor, Megan W.; Star, Jon R.; Chao, Theodore – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2014
The concept of "implementation fidelity" is broadly used to capture the extent to which an intervention is executed as intended by the designers of the intervention (Century, Rudnick, & Freeman, 2010; Huntley, 2005, McNaught, Tarr, & Sears, 2010, Munter, 2010). Though implementation fidelity instruments are often used to assess…

Volkwein, J. Fredericks; Yin, Alexander C. – New Directions for Institutional Research, 2010
This chapter summarizes ten selected issues and common problems that arise in most assessment research projects. These include: (1) the uses of grades in assessment; (2) institutional review boards; (3) research design as a compromise; (4) standardized testing; (5) self-reported measures; (6) missing data; (7) weighting data; (8) conditional…

Hays, Danica G.; Singh, Anneliese A. – Guilford Publications, 2011
This highly readable text demystifies the qualitative research process--and helps readers conceptualize their own studies--by organizing the different research paradigms and traditions into coherent clusters. Real-world examples and firsthand perspectives illustrate the research process; instructive exercises and activities build on each other so…

Lundahl, Brad W. – Journal of Teaching in Social Work, 2008
To complement traditional learning activities in a masters-level research methodology course, social work students worked on a formal research project which involved: designing the study, constructing measures, selecting a sampling strategy, collecting data, reducing and analyzing data, and finally interpreting and communicating the results. The…

Skulmoski, Gregory J.; Hartman, Francis T.; Krahn, Jennifer – Journal of Information Technology Education, 2007
The Delphi method is an attractive method for graduate students completing masters and PhD level research. It is a flexible research technique that has been successfully used in our program at the University of Calgary to explore new concepts within and outside of the information systems body of knowledge. The Delphi method is an iterative process…

Carter, Douglas – Inquiry, 1997
Describes the method employed for scholarship that involves the analysis of original unpublished scripts. A professional-development grant provided an opportunity to travel to a university archive to read primary research materials unavailable through conventional means, and to develop a detailed analysis of selected works by Ray Bradbury,…

Herriott, Robert E.; Firestone, William A. – 1983
The last decade has seen the emergence in the policy arena of a new form of qualitative research, one intended to strenghten its ability to generalize while preserving in-depth description. These multisite qualitative studies address the same research question using similar data collection and analysis procedures in a number of settings. To gain…

Tatto, Maria Teresa; Ingvarson, Lawrence; Schwille, John; Peck, Ray; Senk, Sharon L.; Rowley, Glenn – International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement, 2008
Over the last 50 years, the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) has conducted more than 23 large-scale comparative studies of student achievement. The work associated with teacher preparation as well as experience gained in many of IEA's studies, such as TIMSS, led to a request from members of the…
