Research in the Early Years, A Step-by-Step Guide

By Pam Jarvis, Stephen Newman, Wendy Holland and Jane George (Pearson, 22.99, ISBN 9781408254073)

This advice and guidance aims to make the process of early years research less daunting and more rewarding for students.

Using four first-time, fictional students as case studies, the authors begin with planning and preparation for an early years research project, moving through to project write-ups, methodology, observation-based research, putting research methods into action, and presenting data and conclusions.

The experience of the fictional characters bring the text to life and make this a user-friendly guide for students embarked on a range of research projects.
