During this module, you will engage in independent learning supported by lectures and supervision, which will enable you to consider and meet the module learning outcomes.
You will have identified your own learning needs specifically in relation to being able to better understand, critique and evaluate literature, and other sources of information, to inform your practice across components of physiotherapy practice, having successfully completed Critical Enquiry for Health – research methods module.
You will build on your previous research learning and will plan and complete your research project detailed in your research protocol.
As part of the process, you will be expected to compile and maintain a research portfolio, normally as a secure electronic document e.g., as part of your ePortfolio. Supervisors will be provided with appropriate access, where they will detail the research processes undertaken and where they will provide evidence e.g., approval from an appropriate ethics committee, participant information, consent forms, risk assessment, and data.
The research portfolio is an important source of information that will describe, implicitly, your research journey and will be required as part of the module completion and research governance requirements.
