humber.ca/global-opportunitie...
Our bootcamp is designed to introduce students and emerging researchers to the ongoing journey of life-long exploration we call research. We will start from the beginning - what calls you to this challenge? How to solve societal problems? How to engage others in community development? Or just plain curiosity about a subject area? You start from where you are! We will introduce you to different types of research and provide guidelines for conducting your own research project. As part of the journey, we will undertake a short project whereby you can experience the power of collaborative research practice.
You will learn how to:
Learn practices to build psychological safety
Develop your ‘fundamental four’ research skills: self-awareness, learning agility, influence and communication
Use key tools in anthropology and ethnography
Become a data storyteller
The course is right for you if:
You are curious by nature (in other words, a born researcher!)
You are looking for personalized attention, compelling conversations and peer-learning experiences
You want to enhance/explore your ability in practical research skills
You want to challenge yourself in new ways
What will I be able to do after the course?
Understand, recognize and help manage the process of change in an organization
Enhance and broaden your qualitative and quantitative research practices
Hone your problem-solving skills
Recognize and consider the ethics of choices and actions
