Module two: How to plan research -  includes real life project examples to show how other people have done research. The tutorial gives you the chance to see a couple of research proposal examples and a project plan. This tutorial offers the chance to read them and look at how you could adapt the draft template for your own research project. 

Module three: Doing research -  the final section of the module looks at conducting research. It takes you through some of the processes that you may need to use as you undertake research and it begins to explore the different ways that work can be disseminated. For example, an introduction on discourse analysis – how to review your focus group data. It also helps you navigate the different ways of promoting and disseminating research from internal reports to social media and publishing journal articles. It also explains the best way of managing and responding to the peer review process, when publishing in a journal.
