Abstract

This paper provides guidance and reference material to researchers interested in both research approaches and research traditions to carry out investigations in education. We present a theoretical framework about quantitative, qualitative and mixed research approaches. In addition, this document reviews some research traditions such as action research, participatory action research, case study, and ethnomethodological research.
