For this formative assessment, you need to write a brief research design (500 words) and a section where you consider the ethics of this research design (500 words) in response to the scenarios below. This can be used for the summative assessment, which will be based on the same scenarios. The purpose is to gain feedback from your fellow students to allow you to improve the quality of these two sections for the final summative assessment before it is formally marked.
In your research design, specify your focus, methodology, two methods you will use and how/when/where/from whom you will collect your data (whichever of these are applicable).
