The book's guiding principle remains simple: how to produce school-based research that is both useful and rigorous . It offers a clear account of the research process and provides a sound basis from which teachers can realistically conduct school-based research projects. New sections in this second edition include: a discussion of the impact of feminism on educational research further coverage of action research and case study research, and advice on writing up research. The authors have also updated their invaluable annotated further reading lists for each chapter.
