Abstract
A common problem encountered in working with large classes is the
difficulty of providing sufficient support and assistance to allow the students
to develop both the skills and the confidence required for them to car
r
y out
original research.
This paper reports on the use of group work with limited
guidance to facilitate small-scale research.
While one area of geography is
used in the example
,
the method is applicable to a wide variety of other
subject areas, both within geography and more widely.
