Beschreibung
This 3-volume set includes the new editions of Yoland Wadsworth's comprehensive, trailblazing trilogy designed to support effective research, inquiry and evaluation. It includes revised and updated editions of Do-It-Yourself Social Research, Human Inquiry for Living Systems and Everyday Evaluation on the Run.
Offering a grounded approach, rooted in the properties and processes of all living systems, the guidance supports and encourages researchers to individually-and-together, inquire their way to a more life-giving future. Do-It-Yourself Social Research emphasizes the importance of a spirit of inquiry, demystifies the research process, and covers the essentials of where to start, how to manage a research project, methods, techniques and resources, digital tools, interpretation, analysis and reporting. In Human Inquiry for Living Systems a radically new proposition is offered: that the act of our 'inquiring', of researching and evaluating together, is the way by which every living organism and all collective human life goes about continuously achieving the conditions for life. Everyday Evaluation on the Run provides a practical overview of the main approaches to evaluation, strategies for involving stakeholders, and the evaluation industry's toolbox of models and techniques.
This 3-volume collection of path-breaker Yoland Wadsworth's crucial work will assist new generations in conducting research effectively at every stage.
