Learning outcomes |
Research classes aim to work on student autonomy in preparing a pre-research project, training and testing the ability to problematize reality, critical analysis and logical construction and linguistic correction of a scientific report.
Develop in our students the ability to develop a pre-research project based on theoretical and methodological points of view.
The aim of this UC is to deepen specific skills relating to the use of qualitative and quantitative research methods and techniques in social and human sciences, with a particular focus on scientific research in journalism. The curricular unit pursues a reflective, critical and applied orientation whose aim is to provide students with epistemological, methodological, technical and ethical devices that allow them to know and discuss the possibilities and limits of the use of various methods and techniques of collection, treatment and data analysis.
