Synopsis

For students undertaking a research project this book offers a useful roadmap for the important issues you will have to consider. It is not intended to be a comprehensive volume on research methods, but rather a short, practical guide with tips and suggested activities relating to key aspects of the research process. Different chapters will appeal to different research objectives and styles. A range of topics is covered including working with quantitative or qualitative data, visual analysis and understanding the relevance of your research. The book is accompanied by a website that takes forward the themes of each chapter by providing additional reading and sources of information as well as an opportunity to join a discussion with fellow readers. There are video and audio clips from the authors and other experts as well as links to further digital tools and resources. Companion website - http://www.etextbooks.ac.uk/research-projects/
