Are you about to embark on a research project for the first time?
Unsure which data collection methods are right for your study?
Don't know where to start?
By presenting the reader with a series of key research management questions, this book introduces the novice to a range of research designs and data collection methods. Building an understanding of these choices, and how they can impact on the dissertation itself, will lead to a much more robust and valuable study than simply focussing on applying the first system you come across.
This book is designed to be read in a non-linear manner, with the choices you make directing you to further choices and different outcomes elsewhere in the book. Advice from "virtual supervisors", as well as reflections from students and lists fo further reading will support you on your journey to developing an organised and successful dissertation research plan.
There is no better starting point for undergraduate students of any subject who are keen to engage fully with their research dissertation.
