Lately we have been looking around at how different groups view and experience research. An interesting take can been seen in an overview of a project by celebyouth.org, based in the School of Sport & Education at Brunel University and a collaboration with Manchester Metropolitan University. The group's aim was to look at the significance celebrities have in the construction of young people's aspirations. They have used their experiences to help inform others researching similar areas when it comes to the methods employed and this looks very useful to a number of our research areas, including Children, Young People and Education. This includes negotiating access to schools for a research project, dilemmas encountered with youth-centred research, and ethical issues surrounding archiving data once collected.
Have a look at their recommendations if you think this may help inform your research methods.
