Researching Ageing Societies
The aims of this module are to (i) engage students in a critical debate on the transformations, challenges and potentials that ageing societies face and (ii) discuss the research methods, data and ethical implications involved in contemporary research of older people. The module will combine critical assessment of contemporary issues relevant to ageing societies with discussion of the application of different research methods, ethical issues and research impact considerations to researching older people. -

Researching Ageing Societies (DL)
Students will gain an understanding of the individual, social, economic and political implications of population ageing by examining substantive and research methods issues pertinent to ageing and older people, such as end-of-life care or service provision. They will gain an appreciation of the diverse meanings and experiences of ageing over the lifecourse by examining ageing through the lenses of ethnicity, gender, socio-economic group and sexual identity, and discussing the methods, data, ethical implications and research impact opportunities of conducting empirical research on such issues. -

Researching Archaeology
Archaeological knowledge is generated through research, whether undertaken in an academic, commercial, public or private environment. As students, you are recipients of the knowledge gained through research, and you will also participate in the research process through involvement in fieldwork and the production of your Dissertation. But how does research happen? Who does research? Who consumes research? How is it funded or supported? What are the constraints and ethical issues encountered while undertaking research? Most critical of all, what makes good archaeological research?
In this module we guide you through the archaeological and heritage research process, from planning, to implementation, and final dissemination through publication and other media. This will be achieved by introducing you to a range of real-life research projects, drawing upon the diverse and rich experience gained by departmental staff and external researchers. Looking back and looking forward, the module will aid your understanding of the fieldwork you may have participated in during the Field and Practice module, and help in guiding you through the process of researching and writing your Final Year Dissertation. -

Researching Language, Culture and Communication in the Global World
This module will introduce you to solving real world problems in the area of Language, Culture and Communication with research methods including forms of discourse analysis, questionnaires, interviews and narrative inquiry.
You will reflect on some key issues such as the nature of knowledge, theory and data. This will allow you to critically evaluate studies and their research methods, and to design your own study or intervention. You will also discuss practical challenges of designing and conducting research such as defining research questions, identifying appropriate methods, research management and problem solving, writing up research, ethical issues, presenting research and thinking reflexively about research.
You will also be introduced to the option of producing a professional project as an alternative to the traditional dissertation.
