In this hands-on workshop, your students will be introduced to the fundamentals of research design, methods and/or analysis. The session can be tailored to specific topics and supports students to achieve key EPQ and IBCP assessment outcomes.

For the EPQ this includes: designing and planning their own project; collecting evidence; interpreting this evidence; and drawing conclusions.

For the IBCP Reflective Project this includes: building students confidence in identifying and analysing their ethical dilemma and discussing and evaluating the implications for their career-related study.

The workshop focuses on supporting your students in their decision-making and problem solving, to become critical, independent, reflective learners, with a strong link to higher education and future employability. The two-hour session with an academic and/or Postgraduate ambassadors can be extended to include opportunity for a tour and use of the library facilities (supported by the SCE team and student ambassadors).

Depending on group sizes and academic availability this may be offered as a multi-school event.
