What should you include in your presentation?
- Topic-problem area: why have you chosen it, why is it relevant?
- How your positionality affects the construction of the research problem (are you a member of the researched group, what dilemmas might this pose?). Be reflexive here.
- Research questions – state these clearly and speak to what you hypothesise in relation to the problem area.
- Brief review of the literature to situate these questions and show their relevance, what your contribution is.
- An outline of the research design (including methodology/methods and timeline of steps to carry out the research, may include resource needs/contacts/recruitment)
- What concepts and/or theoretical perspectives inform the research and your approach.
- Example of any thematic areas to be explored in either survey or interview guides
- Proposed structure of report and how you are developing it, including timeline for the same.
- Problems you foresee and troubleshooting.
- Invitation for questions.
