AQA BUSS4 Student Research - How Was it for You in Summer 2010?

We’re creating some new research support resources for centres teaching AQA A Level Business Studies Unit 4 (BUSS4).  One area of interest is to learn from the experience of colleagues as they set up and managed students through their “independent research” for both Section A and Section B essays in summer 2010.  If you have some feedback on that process, and/or other thoughts on how you might organise the research task differently next time, please add them to our brief survey form below.
