Conflict contexts often comprise multiple, interlinked armed actors, all influenced by and influencing each other. These contexts are further complicated by cross-cutting dynamics of ethnic, customary, kinship or religious dimensions. Field research contextualizes the conflict and the issues that matter, helps understand drivers and motivations behind conflict actors and breaks free of embedded preconceptions.
It can bring to life the unseen complexities: policemen fighting rebelling siblings, women fleeing insurgent cousins, parents losing children to armed groups, government officials persecuting family members as non-state actors.
Conflict ecosystems are invariably messy, counterintuitive and seemingly incomprehensible, yet remain the reality we seek to understand. Observing youth relationships with families and commanders in their communities, she was able to break free of preconceptions from media imagery and simplistic assumptions that children join community-based armed groups because they are drugged.
Her fieldwork unearthed much more diverse motivations and choices: many children chose to join or decided to refrain of their own will. With any type of research, ethics and safety must be paramount. Fieldwork poses distinct challenges for each venue, context and participant.
Research fatigue is a growing issue that has negative implications on the quality of data. If respondents are wary about the benefits of research and are hesitant to participate, the authenticity of results is harder to determine. Researchers must be careful not to instrumentalize fieldwork and budget enough time and resources for in-depth quality research to produce authentic, reliable and valid data; this data should be periodically updated.
Getting approval from institutional review boards for fieldwork can often be challenging, and rightly so, but this rigor helps researchers address potential challenges and ensure the integrity of their research. When growing up children will look for role models this could be their carer. Children that have limited opportunities to develop their communication skills could have poor behaviour and attention span. When it comes to playing and exploring, children use every sense to help them take in the natural world and understand the changes.
Children can take risks outdoors but they also have the opportunity to manage risks. The opportunity is also there for children to role play and try out new things. From a schools perspective, installing outdoor classrooms and play areas in the form of shelters, sail shades and school canopies can be relatively cost effective and they may even get help towards the funding through grants and other national building. However, late start can still be dreadful by causing heaps of negative stress in the family.
Due to financial problems in some families, some students could be providing income in order to support their families. Accepting late start could mean that these students could need to quit their jobs or work night shifts. Working night shifts could mean sleep deprivation which can cause negative stress. In other words, possibly more health issues than what we started with.
The importance of good lesson planning and the benefits they have for the teacher. When considering the importance and even the significant of effective lesson planning, quite often we immediately considering the benefits that this can have on the student. Effective lesson planning certainly does benefit the student, discussed later in this essay.

In addition the students benefited greatly from getting to experience a new culture and networking and making friends with their counterparts at the University of Kerala.
A recent project which partnered University of Southampton students with students from Jadavpur University in Kolkata, demonstrates the significant benefits of fieldwork for both research and student training. The aim of the collaboration was to enable the Southampton students to collect data for their dissertations as part of an MSc in Sustainability, and for Indian students to see different methods and approaches to data collection. Conducting fieldwork enables students to see applications of theory they have learned in the classroom, and is considered a high point of the postgraduate experience.
Lindsay Roberts, an MSc student at UoS, whose dissertation looked at the role of migration on women said,. I realised the importance of collective action for sustainable and resilient farming practices. As well as being useful for the visiting British students, student counterparts from Jadavpur University also found the experience valuable.
