Practical Statistics for Educators

Practical Statistics for Educators, 6th Edition, is a textbook designed to introduce essential statistical concepts to education students enrolled in introductory statistics and action research courses. The volume also serves as a guidebook for educational practitioners studying their own settings or participating in program evaluations.

Core coverage centers on fundamental concepts in educational statistics, selecting appropriate statistical tests, and interpreting data outcomes. The text also addresses educational testing, test score interpretation, reliability, and validity.

All examples are sourced directly from education to illustrate terms, tests, and data interpretation. Mathematical formulas and equations are used sparingly throughout the text, and readers are not required to perform computations.
