Authored by the absolute top authorities in quantitative and mixed
methods research in this field. Introduces students to data
analysis, and includes extensive coverage of research practices and
related issues in design and methodology, and excellent coverage of
a range of quantitative and mixed methods. Inclusion of the latter
in a research text in applied linguistics is unique. Intuitive,
chronological organization makes it easy for students to navigate
and understand the book, while also being able to fruitfully
consult individual chapters as needed. This organization allows
students to conduct their own research studies from beginning to
end. A wealth of graphics, visuals, exercises, practice tasks,
boxes, and other pedagogic material provides students new to
research with the necessary introductions to the key topics and
debates in L2 research, as well as the tools to conduct their own
research projects. There is no other core course text for
SLA/L2-focused research design and analysis. Unlike other research
methods core texts, Mackey/Gass focuses on L2 rather on applied
linguistics more broadly. It therefore offers coverage of many more
relevant methods. Also offers a hands-on guide so that students can
conduct their own research. Mackey/Gass is much more user-friendly
and well-written than extant books. Other books are a compilation
of different contributions and styles without a unifying voice (or
written as well as Mackey/Gass).
