Welcome to the Research Methods in Education Handbook for The Open University Masters Programme in Education. This is supplied to all students on entry to the Programme. It is designed to assist you in your study at postgraduate level. All of the modules in the Masters Programme demand an ability to interpret and assess evidence, and often this evidence comes from research studies. In addition, some of the modules also require students to carry out small-scale investigations. Guidance is provided in the modules about both these types of activity.
