Description
Interviewing in Educational Research provides a practical guide to conducting research interviews, highlighting the often-overlooked challenges and complexities involved. Written by Janet Powney and Mike Watts, this introductory text offers valuable insights into the theoretical assumptions and implications of interviewing, as well as guidelines for preparing, conducting, reporting, and analysing interviews.
With a focus on educational inquiry, the book explores different types of research, from large-scale surveys to individual school studies. The authors draw on six case studies contributed by researchers who have conducted interviews for various purposes and in diverse ways. This comprehensive resource will be valuable to students and researchers across multiple fields, including education, social sciences, medical research, economics, business, and more.
