Thesis and Dissertation Guide: Theory and Applied Practice guides students through the process of developing and writing a research proposal and final study. The book focuses on research that might be quantitatively oriented, qualitatively oriented, or mixed methods and demonstrates to students that one approach is not superior to others, but rather, there needs to be alignment to the purpose of the study. A chart is provided to demonstrate alignment between the research purpose, research question and/or hypothesis, inductive and/or deductive reasoning, and the research design. The book offers examples of the written language of research and helps students develop and write a research proposal, as well as a traditional five-chapter thesis or dissertation. It features emphasis on the critical analysis that must be employed when finding the missing gaps in the literature, while also developing a new approach to a research problem. There are uniquely designed scaffolds to take students through this critical analysis process while they simultaneously develop the foundation for, and write up of, their literature review. Thesis and Dissertation Guide is an exemplary text for inquiry, research, research proposal, and dissertation courses in any discipline associated with social science and education-related research.

Expert writing advice from the editor of the Boston Globe best-seller, The Writer's Home Companion Dissertation writers need strong, practical advice, as well as someone to assure them that their struggles aren't unique. Joan Bolker, midwife to more than one hundred dissertations and co-founder of the Harvard Writing Center, offers invaluable suggestions for the graduate-student writer. Using positive reinforcement, she begins by reminding thesis writers that being able to devote themselves to a project that truly interests them can be a pleasurable adventure. She encourages them to pay close attention to their writing method in order to discover their individual work strategies that promote productivity; to stop feeling fearful that they may disappoint their advisors or family members; and to tailor their theses to their own writing style and personality needs. Using field-tested strategies she assists the student through the entire thesis-writing process, offering advice on choosing a topic and an advisor, on disciplining one's self to work at least fifteen minutes each day; setting short-term deadlines, on revising and defing the thesis, and on life and publication after the dissertation. Bolker makes writing the dissertation an enjoyable challenge.
