Managing Applied Social Research – Tools, Strategies, and Insights: Research Methods for the Social Sciences
Autor D Russ–Eften Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 dec 2017
THE ROAD MAP TO OPTIMIZING YOUR APPLIED RESEARCH PROJECTS WITH A PROJECT MANAGEMENT SKILLSET
Managing Applied Social Research gives applied social researchers a powerful framework for using project management concepts and tools to optimize the effectiveness and delivery of their applied social science research studies.
Applied social researchers don't have the luxury of working in controlled labs, and often their research environments are messy, chaotic, and political, which makes even well-designed studies using high-quality data collection and analysis techniques inadequate for timely, focused results within budget. Brought together under the common goal to create a practical toolkit for managing people and resources at scale, the uniquely qualified author team offers a turnkey process for running any social research study with the most up-to-date thinking and techniques in project management.
Conveniently focused sections on planning, executing, and closing out a study present informative chapters offering:
- Clear introductions and definitions to key concepts and systems
- Authoritative advice on practical implementation, including reliable estimates of the required time and resources
- Real-world examples, case studies, and vignettes illustrating how the framework is being used in the field
- Ready-to-use checklists, templates, samples, and other tools to streamline your mastery of this dependable methodology
Anticipate and prevent the problems threatening the success of your study with Managing Applied Social Research.
