Presentation at HEA-funded workshop 'Supporting undergraduate and Level 7 student teachers to develop meaningful qualitative research projects'.
Presenters proposed a range of theoretical lenses and stimuli through which delegates may guide undergraduate and Level 7 students to develop small-scale qualitative research projects. Delegates engaged in group discussions and activities to explore issues and share ideas about how to support students to become confident, competent researchers.
