Things this week and next

Well i must keep going - always plenty to get on with i say.

Just thought writing a list on here would make things easier.

So over the next 2 weeks...

1) Keep working on literature review
- going to try a new type of table to help organise my thinking and collate themes from various authors.

Article ... Theme 1...Theme 2... Theme 3... Theme 4...
. . . . .
. . . . .

This way i can go down the columns and collect "who" supports or argues what - instead of finding myself jumping to and from studies. Also this will help me identify where the gaps are in the literature.

2) Beginning to relook at my methodology information and sorting out sections for my thesis
- i have some useful information from my proposal and ethics application - so i just need to see what i have, what i need to do etc. Then i can begin to sort that chapter out

3) Re-read up on "successful focus groups" and facilitating focus groups - in preparation (to refresh my memory) for the pilot focus group due to be held 15 Aug :)

4) Keep organising participants as they contact me - demographics questionaires and consent forms etc

Well i think that will keep me busy enough :)
