The book approaches research from a perspective different from that taken in other educational research textbooks. The goal is to show educators that the application of research principles can make them more effective in their job of promoting learning. The basic point is that we do not have to stop teaching to do research; research is something we can do while teaching and if we do good research, we will do better teaching. This book includes most of the topics treated in traditional educational research books, but in a different order and with a different emphasis. The important content consists of using research ideas in a way that will promote effective teaching and learning in our Indian context. This book has been written as a basic textbook for an introductory course of Educational Research or as reference for those interested in research and teaching research fundamentals. It includes 23 chapters in which concepts of research, education as discipline and hypothesis, sampling, historical, philosophical, experimental research, methods, research tools, data collection, analysis of data, formulation of conclusions, report writing, errors in conducting research, the development of educational research and priority fields of educational research have been discussed in detail. The reader who masters the ideas of this text, however, should be well on his way to competency in the methods and procedure of educational research. This book is an encouragement to the students of different disciplines and research scholars as a solution and future guidance in the field of research. About The Author: Dr. Y. K.
