Inside these covers you will find answers to what teacher inquiry entails, why the inquiry process is vital to a healthy teaching profession, and how teachers can translate their wonderings into a systemic form of study that informs classroom change and improvement. Happy inquiring!</em></p>--Dr. Cynthia Carver Associate Professor & Chair of Teacher Development, Oakland University (6/23/2018 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><p><em>Teacher inquiry is a catalyst for change, but the process can be intimidating. This text has a different feel to it. It is reflective in nature, which adds a personal touch to the research process. While it hits on all the same points as someone engaging in action research, the change to an inquiry stance reflects what teachers currently experience in their classrooms. Multiple examples throughout provide the support necessary and the text is useful for both an action research course and a teacher wishing to make systematic, deliberate improvements to his/her teaching. I highly recommend </em>The Reflective Educator's Guide to Classroom Research, 4E<em> to anyone interested in using data to inform and strengthen their instruction and provide a more equitable classroom.</em></p> <br/>--Terri Duncko, Ph.D., Adjunct Professor, Beeghly College of Education (6/18/2018 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><p><em>The Fourth Edition of </em>The Reflective Educator′s Guide to Classroom Research<em> presents the crucial field of teacher research in an engaging and positive manner, with many explanatory examples and scenarios. True to its title, reflective, the narrative highlights the importance of the qualitative approach to research in which the researcher looks at personal and experiential qualities that affect educational change</em>.</p> <br/>--Harriette L. Spiegel, Ph. D. Lecturer, The University of Tennessee at Martin (6/10/2018 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><p><em>This book is a wonderful guide for teachers conducting research in their schools. It clearly explains the process and guides teacher researchers through with well thought out activities combined with ample rich examples to enhance understanding.</em></p> <br/>--Diane Barrett, Professor & Chair of the School of Education, University of Hawaii at Hilo (6/19/2018 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><p><em>This book makes a distinct contribution to the field by providing teachers with a step-by-step approach to teacher inquiry. It is also a great resource for teachers who want to </em>conduct their own inquiries in schools. It is comprehensive, easy to read, and rich with </em>examples and exercises that model the process of teacher inquiry for every stage.</em></p> <br/>--Suha Tamim, Clinical Assistant Professor, University of South Carolina (6/10/2018 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><p>The Reflective Educator's Guide to Classroom Research, 4E is a practical volume that can be used as an interactive guide for university supervisors to facilitate teacher candidates in engaging in inquiry-based reflective practices while gathering data during their field-based experiences.</em></p> <br/>--Rebecca J. Blankenship, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, TESOL Program Director, QEP Liaison, Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (6/3/2018 12:00:00 AM)<br>
