Download or read book Introduction to Quantitative Analysis for International Educators written by Melissa Whatley and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-25 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook introduces international education scholars, professionals and graduate students to quantitative research methods. It provides them with the most foundational and useful concepts in quantitative analysis, using international education themes for all examples and practice problems. Readers will have a foundation to pursue more advanced methods and analyses, whether through formal training or future individual study. The book assumes no prior knowledge of quantitative analysis and is written for individuals who are new to statistics. Practice problems are found at the end of all substantive chapters, and datasets are provided so that readers can practice the analyses that are presented. Moreover, in each chapter, different statistical approaches are illustrated with real examples from international education research. These examples provide context for each statistical method and represent a wide variety of contexts in international education research, covering a variety of international education topics and a variety of regions of the world. From the instructor perspective, these example studies could be used as additional course reading. Moreover, supplemental material provides slides that instructors can modify and use in conjunction with the text.

Download or read book Quantitative Approaches in Educational Research written by Lay Yoon Fah and published by Universiti Malaysia Sabah Press. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a newer edition of our previous book entitled “Introduction to Quantitative Approach in Educational Research”. It consists of 16 chapters which discuss the use of quantitative approaches in educational research. Readers will be introduced to educational research. This is followed by a discussion on research philosophies and research ethics involved in educational research. Research design, population, samples, sampling techniques, research instruments, quantitative data analysis, hypothesis testing, the use of parametric and non-parametric statistical tests will also be discussed in detail. Due to the rapid advancement of quantitative approaches in educational research, new chapters on the use of Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) approaches, namely Partial Least Squares SEM (PLS-SEM) and Covariance Based SEM (CB-SEM) in educational research have been added in this book. Last but not least, the writing of research reports which includes the introduction chapter, literature review chapter, methodology chapter, research findings chapter and summary, discussion and conclusion chapter will also be discussed in this book.
Download or read book Quantitative Methods in Educational Research written by Stephen Gorard and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive guide to quantitative research, rooted in the author's own teaching and research. In particular, it challenges both the student who "does not do numbers" and the student who does nothing but numbers (and who therefore fails to interpret or challenge his/her results). The book shows how all educational researchers need to "do" quantitative research, even if only in the sense of reading other people's research findings. In fact, the book argues that the conventional distinction between primary and secondary research data is inadequate, since there is enormous need/opportunity for conducting research through using and reinterpreting secondary data. This leads to one of the main selling points of the book - Gorard's idea of the "idle researcher", who makes valuable contributions to the research literature by using data gathered by other researchers.
Download or read book Teaching Statistics and Quantitative Methods in the 21st Century written by Joseph Lee Rodgers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work, which provides a guide for revising and expanding statistical and quantitative methods pedagogy, is useful for novice and seasoned instructors at both undergraduate and graduate levels, inspiring them to use transformative approaches to train students as future researchers. Is it time for a radical revision in our pedagogical orientation? How are we currently teaching introductory statistics and quantitative methods, and how should we teach them? What innovations are used, what is in development? This ground-breaking edited volume addresses these questions and more, providing cutting-edge guidance from highly accomplished teachers. Many current textbooks and syllabi differ in only superficial ways from those used 50 years ago, yet the field of quantitative methods—and its relationship to the research enterprise—has expanded in many important ways. A philosophical axiom underlying this book is that introductory teaching should prepare students to potentially enter more advanced quantitative methods training and ultimately to become accomplished researchers. The reader is introduced to classroom innovation, and to both pragmatic and philosophical challenges to the status quo, motivating a broad revolution in how introductory statistics and quantitative methods are taught. Designed to update and renovate statistical pedagogy, this material will stimulate students, new instructors, and experienced teachers.

Download or read book Applied Quantitative Analysis in Education and the Social Sciences written by Yaacov Petscher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To say that complex data analyses are ubiquitous in the education and social sciences might be an understatement. Funding agencies and peer-review journals alike require that researchers use the most appropriate models and methods for explaining phenomena. Univariate and multivariate data structures often require the application of more rigorous methods than basic correlational or analysis of variance models. Additionally, though a vast set of resources may exist on how to run analysis, difficulties may be encountered when explicit direction is not provided as to how one should run a model and interpret results. The mission of this book is to expose the reader to advanced quantitative methods as it pertains to individual level analysis, multilevel analysis, item-level analysis, and covariance structure analysis. Each chapter is self-contained and follows a common format so that readers can run the analysis and correctly interpret the output for reporting.
