Industry and Innovation Research Institute (I2Ri) Research Grant Proposal Writing Group
Our monthly semi-structured research grant proposal writing groups – open to all I2Ri staff at all career stages with input from RIS staff. These are an excellent opportunity to network across the research institute, share ideas, seek input, gain feedback and learn top tips.
We are internationally known for our expertise in language and literacy in education, not least through our impact on English teaching through our involvement in training teachers in the region. As part of Sheffield Hallam, we are committed to research which can be applied in the real world. We investigate language and literacy in real-life contexts, studying how we communicate with each other in our everyday lives, whether in schools from early years to postgraduate study, or in other workplaces.
Literacy practices change over time, and our work encompasses the breadth of contemporary life, increasingly including the digital world. As a varied group of researchers, we apply sociocultural, socio-material, post-structural, post-human, social semiotic and embodied perspectives to our work, among others. Our members work on a range of topics including early literacies, translanguaging, digital literacies, multimodality, TESOL, workplace literacy and foreign language provision.
From internationally acclaimed professors to up-and-coming thinkers, we’re all driven by our passion for applied research into understanding how humans communicate with each other, and what this means for people’s lives and in education practice.
Situated within the ‘Education and Society: Social Justice and Inclusion’ cluster at Sheffield Hallam University, this group seeks to bring together those interested in exploring neurodiversity, as framed by the neurodiversity paradigm.
We intend to promote the discussion and development of work that theorises around and applies the concept of neurodiversity, drawing particularly on an inclusive understanding of neurodivergence, framed by Kassianne Asasumasu as ‘not another damn tool of exclusion‘. In other words, we understand neurodivergence as inclusive of those who identify with any of the multiple identities that fall within the remit of this term.
This includes, but is not limited to, “Autistic people. ADHD people. People with learning disabilities. Epileptic people. People with mental illnesses. People with MS or Parkinsons or apraxia or cerebral palsy or dyspraxia or no specific diagnosis but wonky lateralization or something.”
This group is particularly interested in the cultural intersections and constructions that shape understandings and experiences of neurodivergence. We are also explicitly trans inclusive. We welcome members from across Sheffield Hallam – open to all staff and doctoral students.
The group is organised by Jill Pluquailec and Chris Bailey, who both work within Sheffield Institute of Education.
Open Research Network to support and enhance Open Research practices at Sheffield Hallam. This opportunity is open to anyone interested in Open Research. We welcome researchers, early career researchers, doctoral students, professional services staff, and anyone else with an interest in the aims of Open Research and promoting its benefits.
The Teaching Research Methods Forum is open to any Sheffield Hallam colleagues involved in dissertation supervision or teaching research methods at any level.
The aims of the Forum are: * To provide an opportunity for people involved in research methods teaching and dissertation supervision to meet one another * To create a space to share experiences and challenges relating to the design and delivery of research methods focused teaching * To enable the sharing of best practice, tips, and resources across departments and disciplines
Previous Forum topics have included: * Supervising International Students * Decolonising Research Methods Teaching * Supporting Students with Research Ethics * Supervising Quantitative Research Projects * Helping Students to Identify ‘Researchable Questions’ * Supporting Students with Literature Reviews
