Undertaking a research project can be a daunting task for early years students. This step-by-step guide clearly shows you how to organise and structure your project, write a literature review, interpret findings and successfully present your research.
Bringing the whole process to life through practical examples and real case studies, the book is packed with summaries, key points, checklists and discussion topics, encouraging you to engage with and reflect on your own work.
The third edition is fully updated to include:
New chapters on writing your literature review and structuring your final project
Increased coverage of e-research data collection methods
New real-life student examples and case studies from the UK and internationally
Additional online 'top tips' videos from the author.
This is an essential companion for students on undergraduate and postgraduate early childhood courses, teacher education, nursing, and social sciences. It is also useful for early years practitioners required to carry out small-scale research.
