The outline for the day follows. A choice of three methods workshops is available in the morning session. Research materials will be available beforehand and will form the basis for discussion and reflection on the research method used. Each workshop is to be lead and facilitated by a professional researcher and a teacher experienced in collaborative research. Common elements in each workshop will include a practical opportunity to work with research methods, develop 'critical friends', and consider approaches to analysis and ethical issues.
Scottish practitioners showcase their current research.
If you are interested in discussing your work through a Poster or Presentation please contact Julia Davidson. In the plenary session participants will be encouraged to form special interest groups to support research into teaching and learning. The conference is supported by SEED, Standard Life, and Learning and Teaching Scotland. This group is an open forum for teachers, practitioners and researchers from all sectors of education. It aims to foster collaboration and discussion amongst 'researching professionals' and 'professional researchers'.
