This book goes through the whole process of conducting an early years research study. It is an easy, logical read with a user-friendly contents page.
With so many interesting areas available in early years to study, one of the most difficult things can be deciding where to start and what to research. The author describes how to achieve this by going through a simple five-stage process.
The book covers all the areas from structuring and organising the project, to writing a literature review and analysing data. It highlights problems researchers may encounter that are unique to childhood studies, and discusses how to sensitively and creatively observe, interview and listen to children and formulate questionnaires. It also offers practical advice on how to solve and reflect on ethical issues that may arise when dealing with children and parents.
