Description:An introduction to the theory and practice of second language research for graduate/Master's students in TESOL and Applied Linguistics, and others.There are now many introductions to language research available. What makes Doing Second Language Research different and special is that it puts you inside the research process.It does this by giving you different roles within a variety of mini-studies. This means you can get a feel for what it's like to be a research subject, research organizer, research data collector, research data analyst, and research reporter. All of this is meant to help you prepare for the final goal of designing your own research.The book is organized into four parts:- Part One is a general introduction to the nature of research.- Part Two covers qualitative research and contains chapters on case study research, introspection research (use of verbal protocols), and classroom research (interaction analysis).- Part Three covers quantitative research and contains chapters on descriptive statistics research (survey analysis), correlational research (into language learning and teaching attitudes), and quasi-experimental research (into vocabulary learning techniques).- Part Four consists of a concluding chapter on course evaluation and combining research types.Like other books in this series, Doing Second Language Research is designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice. To help achieve this balance, each chapter is organized into the following sections:1. Introducing the research type2. Experiencing the research type3. Compiling the data generated by the research type4. Analysing the data generated by the research type5. Designing the research type6. Interpreting the research type7. Significance of the research type8.
