Positive comments from some recent users
of this book include: Most schools are full
of documents and data... Dr Slater is among the first to show how they can be used to compare what is said on
paper and in interviews... The results will shock you... Dr Slater is a successful high school teacher and an award winning
author... and here's why... Fantastic little book, punches well above its weight... Makes it seem so simple... the art
of the genius...
As an advocate
of the What Works agenda, I think this book really is a wake - up call... A fantastic insight into the potential for using documents in research... Nails twenty years
of research in twenty minutes... Worth every dime... Every student in my class (6th form) has been told to buy this book... and it's easy to see why... Shines a great big light on the power
of documents in research... Surely this is the best book in its field... First class... I kept referring to this book in my presentation last week and the audience was ecstatic... Education research, usually has little effect on me... Until now... This book is formidable... Crushes the concept that education research is rubbish... fantastic insight... Blows you away with its power and simplicity... Huge reality check,
