Effective monitoring and evaluation rely significantly on the quality of information used. The proper use of statistics along with words makes communicating information much easier, faster and accurate than when words are used alone. This requires that monitoring and evaluation scholars and practitioners acquaint themselves with methods of collecting, analysing, and using data. This course is designed to enhance students’ understanding of the design, conduct, data interpretation and reporting of social science research. It explores the fundamentals of scientific method and scientific inquiry. It covers topics such as methodology, ethical considerations in research, strengths and weaknesses of diverse data collection methods, basic methods in quantitative and qualitative data collection; data analysis and interpretation; critical reading of statistics; and reporting of research findings for use in monitoring and evaluation. This will be attained through the use of discussions, analysis of peer reviewed journal articles, and hands-on practice. Students will learn how to conduct a research project from beginning to end.
