Writing a Research Project or Dissertation can be a daunting prospect. This publication offers students studying for any degree in Education, such as Contemporary Education, Education Studies, Learning Support or Early Years Education, an opportunity to familiarise themselves with the format and structure of Research Projects or Dissertations. The exemplars presented in this collection are ‘real life’ reports, written by students in the final year of their studies. Requirements of different institutions may vary to some extent; however, the principles of writing up a research project remain constant. It is our belief that this publication will enable those embarking upon their final year of study the groundings they need to be successful in their endeavours.
