<p>This paper will evaluate the journal article ‘Examining Teacher Effectiveness within<br />Differentially Effective Primary Schools in the People’s Republic of China’, co-authored by<br />Charles Teddlie and Shujie Liu and published in the journal ‘School Effectiveness and School<br />Improvement’ in 2008. It presents the philosophical classification of the research text, with a<br />particular focus on the underlying view of post-positivism. It outlines two different types of<br />evaluation criteria and, based on the criteria, identifies both the strengths and weaknesses of<br />the research text respectively. It discusses the improvements that could be made for<br />improving the research and concludes with reflections on how the philosophical approach<br />could impact on the coherence between research design and research methodology as well as<br />the recognition of the advantages and disadvantages of combining quantitative and qualitative<br />methods in a piece of mix-methods research.</p>
