This post contains details of our new “Research Collaboration Grant” for 2021-22. We have been given £1,000 to support Research Centre activities and we would like to use £900 of this to support research collaboration. So, if you have an idea you would like to pursue, we would love to hear from you! This grant is available for staff and for PGRs. You can bid for up to £300.
Examples of grant ideas include (but are not limited to):
- A small-scale research project or exploratory research activities with collaborator or partner.
- Purchasing of supplies to help support collaborative research.
- Fees for attendance at conference for collaborators.
- Research assistant time, to support research collaboration.
If you would like to bid for this money, please complete the application form (which you will find in an email sent on 29th Nov). The deadline is 31st January 2022. Please send applications to: alf.coles@bris.ac.uk. If we receive applications for more money than we have available then we will email for volunteers to form a small group of TLC members, who have not put in a bid, to read the applications and to use the following criteria for selection:
(1) fit with TLC aims: (e.g., from our website: “The Centre for Teaching, Learning and Curriculum (TLC) is concerned with questions relating to education in schools, universities, community and out-of-school contexts, including a focus on issues of social justice. We research the learning of individuals, groups and systems from a range of perspectives, including practitioner research”);
(2) potential for/of collaboration;
(3) innovation.
If you would like to discuss this opportunity, please get in touch. We look forward to receiving your applications!
With best wishes
The TLC Planning Team!
