Written in clear language, this book contains figures and tables enabling readers to visualise key ideas. Activities throughout encourage students to reflect and engage with the ideas discussed, thereby making this guide highly interactive. Though aimed at students doing dissertations, it will be useful for any general practitioner/reader entering the field of research or undertaking qualitative social research.
Justifying why this is one of the best books around on methodology is easy when the author's own students provide that evidence. Clough and Nutbrown's 3rd edition provides an important book for undergraduate, masters and doctoral students in education and the wider social sciences. This book will not only increase creative and critical capacities of researchers, but increase understandings of how pervasive methodology is when making findings public within the research processDr. Richard Race Senior Lecturer in Education, Roehampton University
This is a really comprehensive book which takes postgraduate students deeper into some complex concepts without losing them.
The book is very useful to help student to develop their research design.
Updates key information from previous edition. Easy to read for undergrads with good contextualised examples.
Great text which is not too daunting for undergraduate students
Thank you very much for this book. I am using it as one of two research books for my course. Very clear and easy to understand book. Highly recommended.
An excent reference guide for any student studying for the first time research methodology
Recommended for any undergraduate student embarking on research for the first time. A great refresher for tutors delivering research methods as part of a programme of study
A useful, accessible text which part time students find useful.
Very good book which will be an excellent resource. Clearly set out and easy to read.
This text supplements the Clough and Nutbrown text previously adopted. It provides clear explanations making it accessible to health care practitioners new to the field of research.
A very good textbook for beginner student researchers on the MA and PhD programmes in education. Most projects involve qualitative research in the classroom. Clear and well set out and students enjoy it.
Excellent book Good pedagogical features
A very inviting read, however, perhaps a little simplistic for this gruop.Will probaby try it with undergrad cohorts
An outstanding, extremely accessible resource. Supporting students at all levels of research. Clear distinct chapters signposting the relevant aspects of research methodology.
It is a good book for students, as part of their course
Excellent and detailed.Thought provoking exercises which promptedsmall group discussion
Not focused on education type issues but useful in terms of its challenge to more conventional notions of qualitative research. Distinguishing between methods and methodology is a useful section which I encourage students to read.
This text includes many of the important points that we want to convey to level 4 students within the sports sciences. The course has undergone considerable revision over the last year (hence the delay in this review). The material in the book will be beneficial supplementary material to the sport focussed class contexts and a useful addition to library stock
