Conduct a PRIMARY RESEARCH to further investigate a chosen topic. Deploy two different
data collection methods (e.g interview and a questionnaire) including the design of suitable questions to be asked of
a relevant small research sample (minimum 3).
In the Research Report, present, evaluate and interpret both qualitative and quantitative data. Collate and analyse
the data and present the research findings using a range of formats e.g. using software for word processing,
spreadsheets, surveys, statistical analysis and presentations. Communicate the results of the research study
accurately and reliably, with structured and coherent arguments.
Evaluate the theory and application of the data collection methods used in the context of their own research study.
a) Students may extend secondary research conducted for assignment 1, or collect new data. Investigate the
chosen topic using primary research methods (interview and questionnaire).
b) To ensure a relevant data set is gathered, select an appropriate sample of participants. Interview at least one
