About this book
Reviews
“It serves to offer a clear and often much-needed explanation to several aspects of educational research, such as the use of theoretical frameworks and the ins and outs of the publishing process. … This book may serve as an excellent resource for the novice researcher, or as a resource to be shared and discussed between mentors and mentees.” (Cristina Runnalls, MAA Reviews, December 22, 2019)
