GoConqr OriginalUsing Introduction to Research Methods slides
Start with Research Methods for an overview of ideas such as empiricism, objectivity and validity. If you want to focus on how a study is planned, From Epistemology to Methodology connects the choice of methodology with ontology and epistemology.
For a more focused review, Sampling offers a starting point on that topic. Types of experiment- Research Methods includes laboratory experiments, while Ethical Issues Influencing Research Methods covers principles such as informed consent and confidentiality.
Revise with slide sets
Work through one set at a time and note the terms you want to revisit. Compare the slides on reliability and validity with those on experimental methods to see how the ideas connect. When you want to check your recall, switch to a quiz on the unit page; use a mind map there when you want to organise related ideas visually.
Choose a topic and explore a slide set that fits your course.
