Review
Practical Statistics For Educators is a thoughtfully designed text that enables educators to easily understand and apply statistics and research in the field of education. I like the author's style of writing, flow of information and the way she makes the application of statistics user-friendly! The book reduces course anxiety for anyone who may have a fear of statistics and provides users with a comfort level not found in many of other texts of its kind. -- Linda A. Catelli, director of the PDS Partnerships This book is one of the very best on the topic of statistics designed specifically for educators, offering a no nonsense, straight forward approach with specific examples in the field of education. My students find this book easy to read and tremendously helpful as they complete their own research. I continually recommend it to others. -- Michelle Ann Bakerson, Indiana University South Bend An excellent resource for students and educators learning the application of educational research and statistics. I highly recommend it. -- Daniel R. Tomal, Concordia University Chicago; author of Action Research for Educators Concise but thorough treatment of elementary principles. I will use the text for a 2-course research method sequence for masters candidate. -- Philip A. Griswold, University of Maine at Farmington Great text with very clear exercises and relevant examples. Very useful in connecting theory with practice. -- Jan Seiter, Texas A&M - Central Texas
