Abstract

This chapter concludes a sequence which has taken us from asking questions, through the development of ideas and the design and organization of projects, to the analysis and interpretation of results. The 6 projects introduced as examples of research in Chapters 6 and 10 were left unfinished at the stage of analysing and commenting on the findings, and I want, in this chapter, to present briefly the conclusions of these studies and to make some comments on the strengths and weaknesses of the projects.
