Book Description:
Since procrastination ails many student researchers, this book is uniquely designed to move them through the research process, step-by-step and week-by-week, for five weeks, the typical period allotted for the assignment. The structure of the book is flexible, however; students should be encouraged to compress the sequence if their research assignment will take less time or ignore it altogether and use the book to help them solve specific problems as they arise.
Students who follow the five-week sequence usually find that they like the way The Curious Researcher doesn't deluge them with information, as do so many other research paper texts. Instead, The Curious Researcher doles information out week-by-week, when it is most needed.
