Gantt Chart

-

 Within the Inquiry proposal that we are preparing as part of Module 2, we are asked to make a Gantt Chart. I had no idea what this was! So i took to the web! I discovered that Gantt Charts are a popular way of scheduling time when partaking in a research project. Therefore, I decided to search through Youtube to learn how to create one. 

I found a fab video that talked through the stages step by step, allowing me to pause and try out the method I had just learnt. I am very proud to announce that I managed to create a basic version stating the data collection, analysis and writing process against the duration of time to complete it. 

Thank goodness for Web 2.0 and for YouTube!! I have attached the link below as I personally found it really helpful! Good Luck!!

    Thank you for this Emma. I am also in module two and had no idea what a Gantt Chart was. I will definitely take a close look at the video you have added. This is great! :)

Conducting an Interview and choosing the right questions..

-
Image
 I have never conducted an interview before and therefore was very unsure how to begin developing my interview questions to ensure that I would only be asking beneficial questions and gaining data relevant to my inquiry topic.  I decided to use web 2.0 to inform myself about where to begin with creating a semi- structured interview. I came across a really helpful video that broke the preparation for the interview process into stages. That has been the key thing that i have taken from this video, is that it is imperative to prepare! You don't want to waste that precious interview time and ask questions, consequently gathering data that is not relevant to your inquiry and will not further your research.  In the video posted below, it is suggested that you develop your between 7-10 questions and take different topics into consideration; Behaviour- What a person has done or is doing?  Opinions/Values- What a person thinks about a topic. Feelings- How someone feels toward...

My Diagram and Technology

-
I changed my mind on what my diagram was going to be a couple of weeks ago and as a result had to expand my knowledge on filming and editing to ensure that it was depicted in the correct way. I have never been the most technical person and therefore this was a real challenge for me. My first big decision was where to find a decent editing programme. There are free ones, one you can subscribe to and then the ones designed for people that do this professionally. I looked into the more advanced programmes but I just could not for the life of me work them out. I explored YouTube tutorials explaining different parts of each programme, but it was just too complicated. Therefore I reverted back to what I could work with- iMovie. iMovie however still has so many parts that I had never used before this. I had never used underlying music, cut and split audio tracks to fit with my work and experimented with visual affects. It was a whole new journey. I am however happy with how my piece is ...

Analysis- Where do I begin?

-
Image
Today I sat down at my desk with my laptop, opened my notebook and module handbook and thought, where on earth do I start! I have just completed my first draft of my literature review, have conducted my interviews, and now the daunting task of analysing my data must commence.  Triangulation- Something mentioned in the handbooks. It is done to increase validity in research and enhance the researcher and consumers confidence in findings. The idea is to compare my data from interviews, to data found in literature, to my personal experience. However, again the question arises, where do I even start! I decided to research into how to analyse qualitative data. Despite looking into this through module 2, I felt my brain needed a little refresh. I discovered a video that I have attached below that discusses the analysing process. The host of the video says the key to beginning your analysis is by reading the data.   Read the data and then read it again! This is the only way that you w...
