Scallops, Schools and Scholars: Reflections on the Emergence of A Research-Oriented Learning Project
Authors: Gray Donald S., Graham Archie, Dewhurst Yvonne, Kirkpatrick Gillian, MacDougall Lindsay, Nicol Sandra, Nixon Graeme
This paper is based on the emergence of a small research group and its journey to enhance scholarly activity within a new school of education. The group explored a research-orientated learning project to determine what makes a beneficial school experience. Narrative enquiry and hermeneutic analysis were used to develop descriptions and interpretations of the phenomenon from the perspective of the participants. The analysis is presented and discussed to help understand the processes that contribute favorably to research capacity building in an academic institution.
