Invaluable resource for Level 7 students new to the humanities and social sciences.
A highly recommended read for mature, level 7 students returning to study an unfamiliar discipline
A clearly laid out and informative book that students can follow quite readily from level 5 to a more practical application @ level 6. The chapter summaries are a useful aude memoire and the tables are clear and self explanatory. A very 'readable' textbook.
great book which explains things in easy to follow ways, exploring techniques of literature reviews
This book is clearly set out with accessible text and activities for students. I am recommending this text as supplemental to other texts for the proposed reading lists for Year 2 & 3 of the BSc Children's Nurse programme.
Thank you
An essential guide for any students writing literature reviews at masters and PhD level.
A good text with clear step by step method with examples to help the students write a excellent literature review. The tables in the textbook are good reference material for the students.
This is a great book to recommend to your students who are in Year 2, Semester 2. It gets them thinking about how to begin their literature review prior to starting their dissertation. We will be using this in addition to our required text.
