Description
While there are many English books available on academic research methods and philosophy, many complain that they are difficult for budding, non-native English-speaking researchers to use and understand. Rather than hiding behind jargon, writers should describe and define the concepts for the benefit of non-native English speakers.
Social Research Methodology and Publishing Results: A Guide to Non-Native English Speakers explains methods commonly used in the field of academic research, provides stimulus to non-native English-speaking researchers for successful implementation of academic research, and meets the need for an appropriate course framework and materials for teaching research methodology. Covering topics such as pragmatism, research design, and empirical modeling, this premier reference source is a dynamic resource for educators and administrators of higher education, pre-service teachers, librarians, teacher educators, non-native English-speaking researchers, and academicians.
