hi I'm stuck and have no idea how to answer this question, or even if I'm on the right track,

q. Determine a research project that you can conduct in an education and care service.
You will need to ask permission to conduct the project or you may need to create an imaginary scenario. consider how you would complete all the details including:
• conducting and documenting a literature review
• selecting research strategies which will be appropriate to your client group
• the subject matter being researched
• the outcomes sought and
• the resources available.
Develop a format and content of the research methods and a letter of explanation seeking your participant’s permission to conduct research.

hi this is a follow on question from the above question just wandering if I have done it right or not I have no idea.

What are ways toddlers can inflict sustainability in their room and daily practise?

Activity 8
Consider and submit how you would collate, categorise and analyse the data you have collected in your research project from Activity 7.
How would you ensure strength, relevance, reliability and currency in any interpretations (i.e. how would the findings be supported by your data)?
How could you also assess the feasibility, benefits and risks associated with the information?
What types of graphs and pie charts would you develop? Give examples.
Answer: with this researched project it will have to be statics, saving money you can show this by graphs for example saving electricity, water etc. use natural resources instead of plastic resources.

Activity 9
Consider how you would write a formal report for the research project you have been developing over the last few activities.
Check that it meets all of the listed criteria of structure and format on pages 14 – 16 of the McGraw Hill textbook.
Develop an alternative oral version (e.g. a PowerPoint presentation) using the same information that could be presented to the management committee, other staff members or to families of a service.
Also, develop a summary version of the report findings in the form of a flyer to be distributed to families and other stakeholders.
How will you share the report findings with the children who are enrolled at the service and who may have participated in the research?
Answer: attached PowerPoint

also here is the flyer I'm stuck on ideas and not sure if I have covered everything.

List four purposes for which information in a community services organisation might be used.

Research will be conducted for a reason or set of reasons. As a result of research actions will generally be taken, although, in some instances research will show that no action needs to be taken. Explain how a community service organisation which is using research results to implement changes to practice can ensure that the changes are made with as little disruption to the workplace as possible. (350 words)

If the research indicates that changes to practice are required an action plan will usually be developed. List five things that will be incorporated into an action plan.

List at least five criteria that an action plan should meet.
