This publication is the second part of a two-part series, designed to encourage researchers planning to work with young children to consider not only the types of methods needed to answer different research questions, but also the context in which the methods are to be applied and the skills that will be required to use them.
The toolkit is presented as guidance rather than as a ‘how-to guide’ to be strictly followed. Each research problem is unique, each group of children will have different needs and abilities and, as
such, researchers need access to a variety of methods that can be applied flexibly; modified, and combined in different ways to provide a unique research design.
Volume 2 is part of a comprehensive resource developed for academics and practitioner researchers wanting to include the perspectives of young children in their research, produced together with the University of Brighton.
