1. How should I use these documents?
The online versions of this project are included as a guide only. They are not designed as forms for online use or for use on computers. It is intended that relevant parts be printed and distributed to participants for use as worksheets.
2. IMPORTANT NOTE
Please note that the training workshops will probably NOT use all available modules and parts.
It is up to the Trainers to decide which Modules are relevant. They should design a course specific to their research needs. In particular it is intended that only one of the available parts of Module 5 and Module 8 be included in each course.
3. Should I print the WHOLE DOCUMENT or the INDIVIDUAL MODULES?
On this site there are links to view, download and print the training modules either as a whole document, or module by module.
Individual Modules -
You will not need all the available modules and parts for your course. You have the option to only print out parts that are relevant to you. You can also choose to only print the pages for the current training session. For example if you will cover one module per week, you can print out Module 1 this week, Module 2 next week, and so on.
Whole Document -
If you prefer to have the whole document and skip through the pages that you don’t need, then download the whole document. Trainers may prefer to download the whole versions and adjust the outline and modules to the course they will be teaching.
4. Should I use the TRAINEE version or the TRAINER version?
There are two versions of Demystifying Research available on this website.
The Trainee version is for consumer participants. It contains the information and worksheets that will be used during training workshops.
The Trainer version is for the trainers that will run the training workshops. It contains additional information and teaching notes to assist the trainers in developing and delivering content appropriate to the research project under consideration. (The Trainer version has the same page layout as the Trainee version, with notes added to the right hand side, for easy reference between the two versions.)
5. How can I contact the organisations involved in this project?
Below are links to the main websites of the Demystifying Research project partners.
6. I’d like to change the content of the work sheets to suit our research project; can I download Word versions of the documents?
Please Contact The University of Sydney’s Occupational Therapy Discipline in the Faculty of Health Sciences to discuss access to other formats of Demystifying Research.
7. Help, I can’t see the documents!
