Friday 17th June - Next Steps Cover

Good morning Psychologists. I am afraid I have to attend a meeting that has only been called this week. I am aware that Miss Knight has added some further views on some of the research proposals. If wanting further certainty the examples on the sheet both below and in the G:Drive (Mr Beech folder A2) are specific to aspects of your syllabus.

This week you need to do the following as a research team but complete your write up as an individual. Whilst you need to work on this together aspects of this can be "divvied" up>

a) Area of research
b) What research has already been done in this field and what conclusions were drawn?
c) Aims of the investigation
d) Hypothesis + null hypothesis
e) Ethical considerations.
f) Standardised procedures (this will take quite a bit of your time)
g) Resources needed
h) Detail of how your results will be collected (eg. the questionnaire, if observations the categories that will be observed)

I would like a copy of this from each group to be emailed to me (if one person is sending this please state who else is in your group). Email to cbeech@redruth.cornwall.sch.uk I will need to check the details of the project before you go ahead after activities week.

Sorry that I am not there - can't be helped on this occasion.

If you were not here last week have a quick look at the blog post from last week including the presentation and example of how to complete a research write up for peer review.
