I think help in protecting dedicated time for CER would be useful.  There are strategies...]]> 2018-05-14 07:41:59 UTC https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/260360664 Expertise https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/260361038 ... how to change from a chemical-researcher into a social-science researcher and then having the confidence to do so]]> 2018-05-14 07:43:29 UTC https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/260361038 Recognition https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/260361225 ... what incentive/reward is there for pursuing CER alongside a teaching/admin-heavy role?

Each presenter asked to show how their research links to practice e.g. David Read and partial-flipped approach. The application to practice is a feature of the content structure. https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/261857190 2018-05-18 09:42:45 UTC https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/261857190 https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262289409 More help with the "social science" aspect of education research, e.g. good data, statistics etc.]]> 2018-05-21 08:05:06 UTC https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262289409 https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262289555 A crash course or a resource to introduce you to statistics- what tool to use when etc.]]> 2018-05-21 08:06:10 UTC https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262289555 https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262289699 Yes there are certainly a very broad number of roles which might fit under this. Personally I think of "teaching fellows" although they are often called lecturers at more enlightened universities (!) when i hear this term but that is because it's where i fit. We all have different requirements/ needs/desires to do education research.]]> 2018-05-21 08:07:22 UTC https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262289699 https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262290069 MICER was great and the online seminars have been useful (although I can never watch them live).]]> 2018-05-21 08:10:16 UTC https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262290069 https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262290274 Probably not easy to do but a one day writing retreat where people can bring their own ideas and get some guidance from more experienced researchers and journal editors on how to shape their idea into a piece of research or how to write it up for publication, which journals to approach, etc.]]> 2018-05-21 08:11:53 UTC https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/262290274 sarah_masters2 https://padlet.com/s_fergus/pzewwi0b6qf5/wish/264404372 We have the small grants for teaching researchers now which has proved fruitful in terms of helping academics achieve outcomes (papers, conference presentation etc)
