Welcome to EDST332 projects

Hi all,
Welcome to our EDST 332 project weblog. This site is going to be used as a support and information mechanism as we move through the process of undertaking and writing up research.

I'm going to post resources, answer queries and give support as close to 24/7 as possible from this site. You are going to do the same. If you read a question from a colleague and can give support or useful information, then please respond.

To start off, here are some sites which have useful information about doing educational research:
This first one -- Social Psychology Network -- is a clearing house for lots of other sites and information related to social sciences research (of which educational research is subset).

The Association for Qualitative Research also has some useful glossaries, articles and links.

One of the most useful texts (although directed at early childhood research) I've come across lately is:
Roberts-Holmes, G. (2005) Doing your early years research project: A step-by-step guide. London: Sage.

Multiple copies are available in the Exmouth library.

Hi,
The Progression in Phonics booklet will beuseful. Also, have a look at the reference list on the UKLA response to the Rose Review that i sent via email. That should list key books and journal articles in the area.
