Synopsis

This manual focuses on the nitty-gritty of project managing a piece of research from the formulation of the initial idea, through the development of a research proposal, to the writing up and disseminating of results. Its overall aim is to provide practical help and guidance to anyone undertaking research, particularly those doing so for the first time. Issues addressed include: stating the objective of the research; selecting the best methods; writing the proposal; obtaining financial support; getting the project on the road; analysis and synthesis; drawing conclusions and making recommendations; writing the report; and disseminating the results. The text can be used by practitioners undertaking research and evaluation of services, students undertaking projects, and as an introduction to research methods courses in the social sciences.
