• arranging logistics for gathering data (e.g., meeting rooms for interviews)
• preparing data collection tools (e.g., questionnaires, interview guides)
• gathering data
• analyzing quantitative data
• analyzing qualitative data
• writing summaries of findings
• preparing reports of your results (e.g., PowerPoint presentations, a memo to your department, etc.)

Modules 4 and 5 address the actual tasks that your CLIP will carry out during your inquiry. If you and your CLIP have not yet studied these modules, be sure to do so before your CLIP begins its inquiry.
