内容説明・目次

内容説明

How do you conduct social research in society? This text is specifically written to introduce secondary students to research methods, inquiring into demographic, environmental, cultural and social aspects of society. It is a step-by-step guide on how to undertake the various steps in research - surveys, interviews, participant observation, bibliographical research. It takes away the student's apprehension of libraries and replaces it with an informed, positive approach to research. It explains in simple terms every aspect of the library including its new high technology equipment. It awakens the student to the enormous wealth of resources which can be investigated - library, ABS, photography collection, newspapers, TV/media and guides them to an analysis. This is a comprehensive approach compared with other competing books, e.g. Geography Research Projects (Edward Arnold) as it broadly covers all areas of humanities and social science, history, geography, social education. The authors, Dr Renate Howe and Rosalind Lewis have written student texts before and help students every day who are working on research. They are practising professional researchers who feel the need to pass on their skills to secondary students, where research is becoming more important.
