Doing your research project : a guide for first- time researchers in education, health and social science
Résumé
Doing Your Research Project is a confidence builder, a starter book to provide new researchers with the necessary skills and techniques which would enable them to move on to more complex tasks and reading. This book was written as a result of the accumulated experience of teaching research methods to undergraduate and postgraduate students in British and overseas universities. It provides everything that need to know to prepare for research, draft and finalise a methodologically sound and well-written report or thesis, plus it warns of potential pitfalls to prevent a student wasting time on false trails. It is an essential resource to help establish good practice for beginner researchers embarking on undergraduate or postgraduate study, and for professionals in such fields as social science, education, and health.
