Download or read book QCA with R written by Adrian Duşa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive guide to qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) using R. Using Boolean algebra to implement principles of comparison used by scholars engaged in the qualitative study of macro social phenomena, QCA acts as a bridge between the quantitative and the qualitative traditions. The QCA package for R, created by the author, facilitates QCA within a graphical user interface. This book provides the most current information on the latest version of the QCA package, which combines written commands with a cross-platform interface. Beginning with a brief introduction to the concept of QCA, this book moves from theory to calibration, from analysis to factorization, and hits on all the key areas of QCA in between. Chapters one through three are introductory, familiarizing the reader with R, the QCA package, and elementary set theory. The next few chapters introduce important applications of the package beginning with calibration, analysis of necessity, analysis of sufficiency, parameters of fit, negation and factorization, and the construction of Venn diagrams. The book concludes with extensions to the classical package, including temporal applications and panel data. Providing a practical introduction to an increasingly important research tool for the social sciences, this book will be indispensable for students, scholars, and practitioners interested in conducting qualitative research in political science, sociology, business and management, and evaluation studies.

Download or read book Teaching Secondary English written by Mark Pike and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2003-10-30 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `What the book does extremely well is do describe the way things are in terms of the requirements of the Framework for Teaching English, the curriculum and the new specifications - and for this reason it is likely to be most useful to those contemplating English tech9ng in the maintained sector from outside - returnees, aspiring NQTs or those in the independent sector′ - Times Educational Supplement `Instead of taking us yet again on a tour through the four modalities of English, this book′s tri-partite structure takes a refreshingly different approach by offering thought-provoking argument grounded in classroom practicality′ - Nick McGuinn, University of York Students′ comments on Teaching Secondary English: `The book is written in clear, digestible terms, offering many practical ideas for teaching the key skills and the wide range of material encountered in the English classroom. .. It is the kind of book which can be dipped into, which is particularly useful for people who spend most of their time planning lessons!′ `Teaching Secondary English is a must for student teachers and NQTs. It is a clear, comprehensive and practical guidebook dealing not solely with theory and pedagogy, but with the very real issues facing new teachers today′ ` It is clear that Teaching Secondary English, unlike so many textbooks on the subject, is written by someone with recent classroom experience and this helps the reader to trust and respect the advice it purports. I certainly feel it is grounded in practicalities not "pie in the sky" theory that will not work in most `real′ classrooms!′ This book enables English teachers to implement change and rise to new challenges, while remaining true to an ethically and socially just position which provides the rationale for their vocation. The author describes and evaluates recent changes to English teaching brought about by initiatives such as the Literacy Strategy, the new `A′ levels and the requirement to focus on spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. Examples of innovative teaching and learning strategies are provided throughout. The author helps teachers to foster keen readers, writers and communicators. He shows how they can enable their students to acquire skills and knowledge, as well as to recognize the value of aesthetic experience, emotional literacy and spiritual and moral response to literature in their own lives and in their communities. This book is essential reading for PGCE students as well as practising teachers and all those involved in English in education.
Download or read book Teaching the Holocaust in School History written by Lucy Russell and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2006-08-17 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we expose students to a study of human suffering we have a responsibility to guide them through it. But is this the role of school history? This issue is the rationale behind teaching the Holocaust primarily historical, moral or social? Is the Holocaust to be taught as a historical event, with a view to developing students' critcal historical skills, or as a tool to combat continuing prejudice and discrimination? These profound questions lie at the heart of Lucy Russell's fascinating analysis of teaching the Holocaust in school history. She considers how the topic of the Holocaust is currently being taught in schools in the UK and overseas. Drawing on interviews with educationalists, academics and teachers, she discovers that there is in fact a surprising lack of consensus regarding the purpose of, and approaches to, teaching the Holocaust in history. Indeed the majority view is distinctly non-historical; there is a tendency to teach the Holocaust from a social and moral perspective and not as history. This book attempts to explain and debate this phenomenon.

Download or read book Making Progress in Writing written by Eve Bearne and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-08-29 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children's achievements in writing lag behind their achievements in reading, speaking and listening. National tests are beginning to expose this gap and inevitably, it is raising concerns. The issue is not without controversy but regardless of the politics of the situation, national progress in children's writing is both needed and possible. This new book from Eve Bearne makes a valuable contribution towards helping teachers close this gap. Uniquely, it follows the structure of the National Literacy Strategy, whilst examining key areas such as bridging KS2 and KS3 writing, and writing skills beyond the Literacy Hour. Such a structure makes the book incredibly practical and easy to use, providing essential information for both practitioners and academics.
Download or read book An Introduction to Panel Data QCA in R written by Preya Bhattacharya and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-08-29 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years, Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) has become one of the most important research approaches in social science. This has encouraged researchers to apply QCA, to analyze cross-sectional and panel data, leading to the development of a variety of cross-sectional and panel data QCA models. This book compares four different panel data QCA models: Cluster QCA, Multiple Sub-QCA, Remote-Proximate Panel, and Relevant Variation Panel. It starts by introducing QCA as a research approach, then discusses the assumptions, and steps in a QCA research process. It then applies these assumptions and steps to demonstrate each of the 4 afore-mentioned panel data QCA models. Each chapter also provides a step-by-step guide, that researchers can follow while building any of these 4 panel data QCA models. Finally, it compares the strengths and weaknesses of each of these models and suggests scenarios where researchers can apply them. This book is supplemented by materials like datasets and codes, available at the end of each chapter, and online on Harvard Dataverse. This book can be used as a textbook for introductory and advanced courses on panel data QCA.
