What is research and who is a researcher? Why engage in research
and what can be its value? How do we come to know what lies beyond
our horizons? Paradigms of Research for the 21st Century opens the
door for wondering about these and other questions pertaining to
the nature and process of educational research. It offers an
insightful and detailed account of Western and non-Western
philosophical traditions and perspectives on reality, knowledge,
and values that have been responsive to past and present
developments of educational research in North America. These
accounts form a paradigm - a system of inquiry, a model, or a way
of knowing. Empirical-analytic, pragmatic, interpretive, critical,
poststructuralist, and transcendental paradigms are distinguished
as an alternative to a quantitative-qualitative typology of
paradigms in educational research. This book can be used for
introductory and advanced research methods courses at the master's
and doctoral levels.
