Using Internet for Applied Development Research Introduction:
Internet has become a major source of information for social
scientists, and users benefit from improved search and other tools
that optimise one's use of the Internet. In this context, CDS has
developed a short duration training programme on 'Using Internet for
Applied Development Research' for research scholars in economics and
other social sciences, across colleges and universities in India.
Programme Objectives:
Given a research topic, after attending the course, the participant
should be able to:
* Prepare a comprehensive but issue-specific bibliography using freely
available resources on the www;
* Identify secondary source datasets;
* Download the identified datasets in an efficient manner; and
* Familiarise with different methods of dissemination (of output) and networking
Programme Content:
The programme will take the participant through the various stages
involved in conducting a applied development research project and will
familarise the participant with the Internet resources which can make
that step easier. The topics covered include tools for power browsing,
searching, downloading, data analysis, collaborating, and reporting
writing etc.
Hitherto seven versions of the programme have been offered in
2005,2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 respectively. The eighth
version of the programme will be offered during March-April 2012.
