Report
You are required to prepare the research project report that describes and justifies the decisions you have made for your proposed research design, data collection methods, sample selection, ethical considerations and data analysis techniques that are relevant to the research proposal that you have selected. These components will be informed substantially by your literature review in Assignment 2. This research project involves the development of a Qualtrics survey which you need to design and include whether you choose to develop a qualitative, quantitative, or mixed method of survey and/or interview questions
Instructions
