Second year research methods preparation tasks

All of the preparation work for the second year research methods is contained in one pack (see button below). You need to print this off, keep it in your folder and you need to bring this to EVERY research methods lesson as you will be using it to practice exam questions and complete in class activities.
You must complete each prep task in the prep pack to be checked by your teacher in the lesson and they will take the pack in from time to time to check the overall quality of your work. REMEMBER once completed the prep pack turns into a revision pack (if filled in correctly) so do it properly and carefully or you will be at a massive disadvantage when you are revising.
