Presented by Professor Christopher Day, The University of Nottingham
The seminar reports the findings of a 12 month national project in the UK, funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), their implications for research-informed practices in schools and the roles played in this by universities. The project was framed by a ‘research- in- use’ agenda in which knowledge generated in academic settings is transferred to school work settings through ‘knowledge transfer and exchange’ partnerships between schools and universities. The research focussed on answering three key questions:
The knowledge exchange activities explicitly addressed improvement concerns that emerged as a result of a dialogue with the participants about their improvement needs and through this, enhance and deepen the impact of the research outcomes.
