The trip to the University of Manchester was useful as I started thinking about how I would go about researching my project. However, we had already covered some of the areas discussed in the morning session, such as different research sources. The introduction to the library in the afternoon I felt was extremely useful and will enable me to use the resources there in the future. The library itself is huge and therefore to have a detailed explanation of how to go about finding what you need was helpful. I have learnt how to access the library database and search for the books or journals I may want.
The key things I need to remember during my project are to plan everything and be disciplined in going about my research. As I have not done any EPQ work since my AS Levels, I think it will be a challenge to get back into a routine of researching and planning. I plan to use the free time I have ahead of me to do this to the best of my ability.
