Description: The module provides an opportunity for student?s to acquire and critically evaluate appropriate evidence and data to produce a dissertation. Through critical reflection and application of knowledge, concepts, and research techniques to an identified professional question or problem student?s will make recommendations to improve professional practice. Students are required to identify an area of current practice and to identify potential developments using recognised techniques from health an social care (i.e. audit, evaluation or primary research). Where relevant, this project can be tailored to address service/employer priorities. This module develops project specific skills relevant to the method of inquiry selected. The module will develop the student's ability to work independently and facilitate the development of research focussed professional practitioners.
