In this blog post I try to answer the question that I am often asked in my presentations and workshops: "What should I do with notes and journals?".

This is a link to a webinar organised to offer support for students taking on research projects. My contribution was based on my book Making the Most of Your Research Journal.

This post outlines how to maintain a research pipeline to plan and manage publications systematically and links to a word template.

This paper outlines two distinct staff-student collaborations and how such a partnership may innovate teaching practices.

This article is an invited editorial in the Diverse Voice Series of the journal. The editorial outlines the difficulty of building a network of like-minded researchers when engaging in arts-based approaches.

This is my contribution to the PASAR Connecting Communities conference, which was held in November 2017.

Methodology and methods are only part of the story of choosing a research framework. The way you go about collecting and interpreting data is strongly influenced by how you interpret knowledge and truth. This is about the epistemology.
