About this book

In the first edition of this book, Tim Stewart provided an easy-to-follow guide to conducting classroom research, from getting started to publishing your findings. The second edition of  Classroom Research for Language Teachers further explores different approaches to conducting classroom research in the English language classroom, beginning with the central question: Why should English language teachers conduct classroom research? This edition has also been updated with new examples of teacher research and more resources for language teachers wishing to conduct their own research.

  • The different kinds of research
  • How to develop a research topic
  • How to plan your research project
  • What kind of data to collect, and how to analyze it
  • How to prepare your ideas for publication
