Background and Context

The research toolkit fosters teamwork and facilitates a structured approach to investigations. Save a copy of these templates to your Cryptpad account as a template or duplicate them to get started on your research journey. Each template guides the research process through the different stages, ensuring organized and focused collaboration.

Collaboration Made Easy

These templates are living documents that allow for simultaneous collaboration across your team, ensuring that everyone is working with the most current information. As your project progresses, the templates evolve with it, keeping all contributions synchronized and integrated into a cohesive research strategy.

Customization is Key

These templates are not set in stone. Use them as flexible guidelines and modify them as needed to meet the specific requirements of your research project. Add or remove elements, adjust the layout, and tailor the content to suit your investigation's unique goals and challenges.

Continuous Improvement

We value your feedback to continuously improve these tools. Share your experiences and suggestions with us through our Feedback Survey. Your input helps us make these templates even more effective for future users.

Core Templates Overview

Here is an overview of the core research templates available. Each is designed to support different stages of the research process.

Base Research Document

The Base Research Document is the cornerstone of your investigation. It outlines your research strategy, defines objectives, and serves as a repository for questions and findings throughout the research project.

Research Tasks (Kanban Board)

The Research Tasks Kanban Board is a visual and interactive tool for managing tasks throughout the research process. It helps you track the progress of each phase, from planning and data collection to analysis and reporting.

Structured Analytic Techniques (SATs) (Sheets)

This template provides a collection of Structured Analytic Techniques (SATs) for methodical planning and analysis. SATs ensure rigor in your investigative process by promoting systematic thinking and reducing cognitive biases.

Research Diagram (Draw)

Research Log (Sheets)

The Research Log template is a structured tool for recording and organizing data throughout your investigation. It is designed for comprehensive data collection, categorization, and retrieval to ensure no important information is lost.

Content Drop Off (Form)

This anonymous form allows you to collect information from a wide range of sources, feeding directly into your research. It simplifies the process of integrating new data into your ongoing investigation.

How to Use These Templates

By utilizing these templates, you can ensure that your research is consistent, efficient, and thorough from start to finish. The templates are designed to guide you through every critical stage of the research process—planning, data collection, analysis, and reporting. Customize them as necessary to fit your specific project needs, and use them to maintain structure and focus throughout your investigation.
