What People are Saying About This
An excellent resource for students and educators learning the application of educational research and statistics. I highly recommend it.
Concise but thorough treatment of elementary principles. I will use the text for a 2-course research method sequence for masters candidate.
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.
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.
Great text with very clear exercises and relevant examples. Very useful in connecting theory with practice.
