Please give an outline of your research question/s.

1) What kind of question/topic being investigated? Does it:
Describe? Research on a topic you know something about but describe what you have observed (and literature around it)
Explore? Research a topic you do NOT know about, or very little. You need qualitative tools to help you explore (plus literature).
Explain? Research a topic that involves testing a hypothesis using scientific tools.

2) Have you outlined What? Why? Where? When? 
Have you narrowed it down?
What exactly do you want to know, and is it achievable? Angle?
Why do you think this problem or area is significant?
Where do you want to study this – specific?
When – did you narrow it by time –era specific event?

Refine and reformulate questions using narrowing parameters. 
Become incisive, penetrative and analytical.
Be realistic about your time, and your ability to collect data.
 
Examples:
How do UK urban and rural areas differ in terms of national and local arts funding in the period between 2000 and 2010?
In what ways  and to what effect have  events managers  at X and Y music festivals employed new social media technologies to boost audience participation in the last five years?

How to select a methodology?
How do I want to do it?
Literature-based: in-depth and critical review
Research: through testing, observation or talking with people

Work or practice: report or analysis for my place of work or my own creative practice

NB: A Literature Review is NOT the same as a ‘Literature’ research methodology. ALL research has a literature review of some kind.
How to select a methodology?
Your paradigm (how you understand the nature of knowledge) helps you select your methodology – objective or subjective

Four basic types of research methodologies:
Quantitative
Qualitative
Mixed
Critical and Action

All share desire to understand, all share limitations, all studies answer questions but in different ways. All add to the body of accumulating evidence. 

Realist/positivist position 
Believes there is a truth out there waiting to be discovered
Wants to objectively collect and measure
Uses Quantitative methods

Interpretive/relativist position 
Believes that truth is relative or there can be multiple perspectives of reality
Gathers subjective perspectives
Uses Qualitative methods

Quantitative
Using the Scientific Method. 
Objective measuring of ‘cause’, ‘reality’ or ‘truth’.
Experimental or quasi-experimental
Statistical - counting or measuring
Deductive: starting with a general law or premise to arrive at particular or conclusions

Experiments, surveys, statistics, correlations
Qualitative
Complex, natural settings.
Reality seen as constructed, subjective.
Goal to uncover diverse perceptions and experiences of reality.
Inductive: start from particular instances to arrive at general laws or concepts
 
Biographical, observations, phenomenology, ethnography, interviews, focus groups
Results in Themes or Models or Grounded Theory
Mixed
Research often begins with an open-ended or qualitative question, then after exploration of multiple perceptions may turn to quantitative methods to further test concepts or theories.
Or
Research may employ both quantitative and qualitative methods to provide broad-based research data examined from many perspectives.

CASE STUDIES can be either or both, depending on complexity.

Critical  & Action Research
The researcher is immersed in the object of study, bringing in own subjectivity (not detached)
Subjects under study directly participate in the research, providing experiences, opinions and interpretations
Interaction, critical reflection throughout research process
Intention is some form of problem solving and/or change

Ethics Review
Any university research MUST be approved by the  
Ethics Committee
Ethical approval is embedded within the proposal stage 
– you need a RE3 form

Supervisors will flag projects that require detailed scrutiny
RE3 - Undergraduate/Masters Student Checklist
The student and their Supervisor should finalise form RE3 at the first supervisory meeting
Ethics Review
RE3

The student and Principal Supervisor/Tutor should complete form RE3 at an early supervisory meeting. Students will need to inform themselves of the School’s ethics procedures in advance of the first supervisory meeting, especially as they will be expected to have read the relevant University documents. The process of ethical review will be managed at Departmental level and overseen by research supervisors. Supervisors will expedite review when the potential harm to participants and others affected by the research is minimal. 
Where research involves more than minimal risk full ethical review will be carried out at your Departmental Ethics Committee. Where there are any concerns following this process the Supervisor will refer the issue to the School's Ethics Committee for full ethical review and approval 

Ethics Form
Ethics Review
RE4 – Participant Consent Form
Research or consultancy projects that involve face-to-face interviews, focus groups, direct observation or similar methods of data collection, should normally be given an Information Sheet (or leaflet) and be asked to sign Participant Consent Form (Form RE4). 

All RE4 forms will be deposited in the School's research record store maintained by the RED office. 

RE5 – Research Information for Participants
Potential recruits to research must be given sufficient information to allow them to decide whether or not to take part. Consequently before they are asked to sign a consent form, participants should be provided with an Information Sheet. This should be written in simple, non-technical terms and be easily understood by a lay person. 

The Information Sheet should normally contain the following: study title; invitation paragraph; purpose of the study; reason for being chosen; explanation that their participation is voluntary; explanation of methods; possible benefits of taking part; results of the research; who is organising or funding the research; who is reviewing the study.
