hey i was wandering if anyone could send me there IRP, cuz i have no idea how to set it out, and it would b great if someone could send me it plzzzzzzz
A good investment is the EXCEL book for Community and FAmily Studies...it tells you exactly how to set your IRP out in a topic called Research Methodolgy(which you should be learning soon)...it also explains how to present how not to bias etc...
it will cost around $30, but if i were you i would check out ebay and see if you can get it cheaper... If i find my info sheet i'll post it for you but i think an irp should go as following:
Cover page (1 page)
Acknowledgments (1/2 page)
Introduction (1/2 page)
Content Page (What page everything is on and include what pages graphics and tables etc go on) (1 page)
Literature Review (Your secondary research(Background info.)) (atleast 2 pages)
Methodology (How you got your info. e.g. observation,survey,interview) (atleast 1 page)
Results (use graphs, tables to show this info.) (atleast 1 page)
Discussion (What you found out from your results) (atleast 1 page)
Conclusion (Your results vs your info in the literature review...and don't be alarmed if the results aren't the same..because they're supposed to be your results) (atleast 1 page)
Bibliography
Appendix (Any pieces of information that you had whilst researching your IRP...could include surveys, questionnaires etc)
The length is just an estimate but a good guideline!
GOODLUCK
