Assessment 1 - Data Analysis

Description

This assessments has two parts. For the first and following the instruction sheet, you are expected to create a data set in SPSS or PSPP (to whichever you have access) using raw data provided. Then you must analyse this data statistically. Essentially, you are required to conduct a number of statistical tests to generate output via SPSS/PSPP. Save your results, cut and paste into the instruction sheet and comment/interpret your findings.

For the second part your task will be expected to read the interview transcripts provided and perform a content analysis. That is, you need to read the information/data over and find if there are some common themes among them. You may do this any method you choose. When you have finished the reading, and the categorization, you need to write a no more than five-page report on what you have discovered. You're going to write this up as you would in two sections of a research paper:

Methods (or Methodology)
Here you describe exactly how you analysed the data. What were your rules for determining categories, trends, or themes. How did you do the coding?

Assessment 2 - Research Proposal

The main purpose of a research proposal is to show that the problem you propose to investigate is significant enough to warrant the investigation, the method you plan to use is suitable and feasible, and the results are likely to prove fruitful and will make an original contribution. In short, what you are answering is 'will it work?'

It always forces you to think about your topic, to see the scope of your research, and to review the suitability of your methodology. Having something in writing also gives an opportunity to your supervisor to judge the feasibility of the project

Assessment 3 - Research Report

Students are to prepare a research report in the form of a literature review. Broadly, this is a review of literature related to your chosen topic or area of study. This is followed by your conclusions including an explanation of how your research questions or hypotheses were formed and what areas you would propose for further study. The areas of further study are based on the ‘gaps' that you have identified in the existing literature.

The purpose is so you learn how to:

Identify and formulate enquiry questions and or hypotheses that defines the gap you have identified;

Search and locate literature;

Analyze secondary data and information;

Synthesize new information into the literature review;

Establish context for your enquiries; and

Write at an academic level appropriate for publication.
