The role of the researcher is to enable them to realise this goal. The researcher is part of the group and his\/her role is to facilitate the process by asking some questions which make the people themselves do most of the things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_Rapid_Rural_assessment\"><\/span><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>Rapid Rural assessment<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>This<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>is a way of investigating a problem in the shortest possible time. It is conducted by an interdisciplinary team employing mainly interviews. It is a survey technique that employs human instruments instead of questionnaires. RA arose out of the frustration with some social science methods that are too lengthy though rigorous or too brief and lacking in accuracy. The emphasis is on cost effectiveness especially at the beginning of a research project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Participatory_Research\"><\/span><strong>Participatory Research<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Participatory research combines research, education and action. The role of the researcher in this case is first to become the focal point that enables the participants to translate the unarticulated problems into needs, to provide education in such areas as techniques for data collection and analysis and to enable participants to plan and implement the results of the research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Phenomenological_research\"><\/span><strong>Phenomenological research<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The researcher has greater control over the research process. He\/she observes and records phenomena as they occur or affect the participants in the research, and interprets the findings using his or her own judgement. There is clear element of expertism in phenomenological research though the biography of the researcher needs to be known so that the interpretation can be judged against the assumptions the researcher had at the beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ethnography\"><\/span><strong>Ethnography<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>is a form of qualitative research carried out singularly and sometimes over a long period of time. It employs such techniques as observation and interviews. The researcher stays on one site, talks to the participants and some times takes part in activities e.g. teaching in a school, but primarily he\/she is a keen observer of what is going on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Biographical_Research\"><\/span><strong>Biographical Research<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Biographical research<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>is a form of self-study. The participant is asked to write about his\/herself. What he\/she writes is prompted by questions prepared by the researcher. Mwanakatwe used one long autobiographical account by Mwamba Luchembe (Mwanakatwe, 1993). In it, this ex-soldier who ruffled Kenneth Kaunda by announcing a short-lived coup attempt recounted his own life from school to the army and to the day when he announced the coup de tat.
