Practical Statistics For Educators is a thoughtfully designed text that enables educators to easily understand and apply statistics and research in the field of education. I like the author's style of writing, flow of information and the way she makes the application of statistics user-friendly! The book reduces course anxiety for anyone who may have a fear of statistics and provides users with a comfort level not found in many of other texts of its kind. (Linda A. Catelli, director of the PDS Partnerships)
This book is one of the very best on the topic of statistics designed specifically for educators, offering a no nonsense, straight forward approach with specific examples in the field of education. My students find this book easy to read and tremendously helpful as they complete their own research. I continually recommend it to others. (Michelle Ann Bakerson, Indiana University South Bend)
An excellent resource for students and educators learning the application of educational research and statistics. I highly recommend it. (Daniel R. Tomal, Concordia University Chicago; author of Action Research for Educators)
Concise but thorough treatment of elementary principles. I will use the text for a 2-course research method sequence for masters candidate. (Philip A. Griswold, University of Maine at Farmington)
Great text with very clear exercises and relevant examples. Very useful in connecting theory with practice. (Jan Seiter, Texas A&M - Central Texas)
