Researcher Coach has been written with a sole purpose in mind: to give researchers sufficient theoretical and practical support so that they gain a sense of self-direction and autonomy in the process of formulating and conducting their research. From the core notions of paradigm, ontology, epistemology, axiology, methodology, methods, and research questions; researchers are guided through the fundamental elements involved in planning and executing their research. This book is not only concerned with supporting researchers in the process of formulating a valid and sound inquiry that is viable and methodologically rigorous, but it also emphasizes the importance of community impact. The reader will learn how to conduct the literature review that grounds their inquiry as well as provides context and justification for the execution of the study. Qualitative and quantitative methodologies, including methods and data analysis techniques, are presented in great detail as well as describing the sequential approach for presenting the study’s results and how to support those with tables and/or figures. The book closes with chapters devoted to the interpretation and discussion of the results, as well as general items related to formatting and project completion for publication.

This book guides the reader through the research process in a way that is honest, down-to-earth, and applicable. It is clear the authors genuinely want to help others understand the research journey and succeed in their academic endeavors. The resource is scholarly, yet simple enough in its language to be inclusive and inviting to all levels of research expertise. The authors provide meaningful insight while giving relatable examples that break through the barriers of abstraction and fear that often paralyze novice researchers and their mentors/coaches.
