Overview

This is an introductory session for STEM academics, Associate Lecturers and academic-related staff who are interested in the scholarship of teaching and learning, but are not sure how to go about doing a scholarship project.  We will be launching our 14th call for projects shortly so this session will be extremely useful for those who are new to scholarship and are looking to submit an eSTEeM proposal. 

We will look at the range of scholarship undertaken at the Open University, what approaches have been taken and what might be relevant to your own practice.  It will then take you through the processes involved, from coming up with a research question, designing a project and considering what methods might be appropriate. 

We will also consider how to seek ethical review for your project and approval to work with Open University students, including the Student Research Project Panel (SRPP).

This session will take place both face-to-face (22nd January) and via Adobe Connect (29th January).  The Adobe Connect session will also be recorded and made available as a resource.
