Recenzii

'As a first step towards developing a pedagogical culture in research methods this edited book is not only timely for universities (as they embrace a teaching-focused culture, generally), but also for those researchers who are building curricula in research methods with few texts to guide that process. As the chapter authors are drawn from various disciplines world-wide, their examinations of appropriate pedagogical practices and concrete suggestions for effective teaching strategies will be helpful to anyone teaching research methods.' Lisa M. Given, University of Alberta, Canada 'This book is an excellent guide to what works and what does not work when teaching research methods in the social sciences. I will definitely use what I learned reading this volume for designing my next research methods class, both graduate and undergraduate.' Teaching Sociology

Descriere

How can excellence in the teaching of research methods be encouraged and ensured?Research methodology is now a component of most postgraduate and many undergraduate programmes in the social sciences. However, the status and function of research methods training varies considerably, and much of the existing literature is geared to students rather than to lecturers teaching such courses. The authors of this book believe that it is timely to begin to develop a 'pedagogical culture' relating to research methods -- an exchange of ideas within a climate of systematic debate, investigation and evaluation surrounding all aspects of teaching and learning in the subject. This book is intended as a preliminary step towards developing such a pedagogical culture. It contains contributions from a range of authors, who are involved in the teaching of research methods in different countries and within a variety of disciplines. Their aim is to establish the extent to which there are common concerns and challenges and to demonstrate ways in which these are being met. The book is intended to provide both a stimulus and source materials for the development of a more substantial and systematic literature in the field. The book will be of great interest to all those teaching research methods courses within social science disciplines.
