Chosen Research Method: Observational
Students are each required to submit a 500-word reflection as either a Word doc or a PDF. The aim of this task is to demonstrate a sound understanding of one of the research methods discussed in the course and how it has been used in practice.
Students will summarise one of the methods discussed in the course and also locate and summarise one academic journal article that uses the same method. Students are encouraged to use formal academic language but can use a structure that best suits their personal preference. The reflection should also include an in-text citation for both the method (found in the textbook) and for the journal article. The reflection should ideally attempt to link the method and the article.
This can be done via a number of approaches:
• students can discuss how the method was used in the journal article
• students can critique the effectiveness of the article’s method
• students can discuss how the article extends/modifies the method
