Sage Research Methods: Cases 1 & 2 

 

SAGE Research Methods Cases focus on how users can search cases by keywords to find projects on similar topics to their own to find inspiration on the best methods to use. Because each case examines successes and struggles faced over the course of the project, users will also learn how researchers need to make constant decisions throughout the course of their study and pivot when a method or data source is not working out.
