Colleagues,

Each year ALDinHE allocates funding for innovative research projects that focus on specific aspects of Learning Development.

The ALDinHE grants are competitive bids, which are judged by the Research and Development working group against the following criteria:

1. The extent to which the research will directly impact or further enhance students’ experiences of Learning Development.
2. Evidence of collaboration and clear implications for the field of Learning Development, beyond the individual’s immediate practice / subject field.
3. Appropriate and achievable aims within the context of the project, including details as to how the project will be evaluated and shared with the LD community.
4. Appropriate research question/s, methodology and breakdown of financial details and how this builds on the current literature within the field.
5. Demonstration of how the project is aligned with the research team’s interest and experience in pedagogic research.

Project outcomes are disseminated to the wider community through the website and the annual ALDinHE conference.

The call for applications is currently OPEN. Please send your applications to research@aldinhe.ac.uk, by 12 noon 29th July 2019.
