Chapter 1. What is research -- Chapter 2. What is the component of a qualitative research report? -- Chapter 3. The research question -- Chapter 4. Open ended questionnaires -- Chapter 5. Interviews -- Chapter 6. Observation.

Summary: What sets this book apart from existing books is its balance between theories and learning activities. The activities are designed to be interactive so that they provide a space for both students and teacher to reinforce their understandings of the research topic. It is my belief that one learns research by conducting research rather than by talking about it. Thus, the activities created in the book provides opportunities for students to develop and sharpen their research skills. This emerging research skills will be very useful when students later conduct their own research.
