<br/><br/> Encouraging young children to create and carry out their own social research projects can have significant social and educational benefits. In addition, their research may help them to influence local and national policies and practices on issues that matter to them. To support this, this book acts as a practical guide to give teachers - and other adults who work with children - a set of structured, easy to follow session plans that will help children to become researchers in their own right.
