  1. Research and its practice in creative disciplines Professor Judith Mottram Dean School of Material, Royal College of Art

  2. The role of the University A University is a place whither students come from every quarter for every kind of knowledge; a place for the communication and circulation of thought, by means of personal intercourse. It is the place to which a thousand schools make contributions; in which the intellect may safely range and speculate. It is a place where inquiry is pushed forward, discoveries verified and perfected, and error exposed, by the collision of mind with mind, and knowledge with knowledge. Mutual education, in a large sense of the word, is one of the great and incessant occupations of human society. One generation forms another. We must consult the living man and listen to his living voice, by familiar intercourse to adjust together the claims and relations of their respective subjects of investigation. Thus is created a pure and clear atmosphere of thought, which the student also breathes. Newman, J.H. The idea of the University. Notre Dame University Press. 1852

  3. The UK Higher Education Funding Council Enhancing excellence in learning and teaching To ensure that all higher education students benefit from a high quality learning experience fully meeting their needs and the needs of the economy and society. Enhancing excellence in research To develop and sustain a dynamic and internationally competitive research sector that makes a major contribution to economic prosperity and national wellbeing and to the expansion and dissemination of knowledge. Enhancing the contribution of HE to the economy and society To increase the impact of the higher education knowledge base to enhance economic development and the strength and vitality of society. http://www.hefce.ac.uk/about/

  4. EU Knowledge lies at the heart of the European Union's Lisbon Strategy to become the " most dynamic competitive knowledge-based economy in the world". The ' knowledge triangle' - research, education and innovation - is a core factor in European efforts to meet the ambitious Lisbon goals. Numerous programmes, initiatives and support measures are carried out at EU level in support of knowledge. http://cordis.europa.eu/fp7/understand_en.html

  5. Background to EU Bologna declaration Magna Charta Universitatum, 18 September 1988 at the approaching end of this millennium the future of mankind depends largely on cultural, scientific and technical development . Sorbonne Declaration, 25 May 1998. the Europe we are building is not only that of the euro, the banks and the economy, it must be a Europe of knowledge as well . Bologna Declaration, 19 June 1999 introduction of the three cycle system (bachelor/master/doctorate), quality assurance and recognition of qualifications and periods of study

  6. Main areas of reform for EU universities to increase the number of higher education graduates; to improve the quality and relevance of teaching and researcher training, to equip graduates with the knowledge and core transferable competences they need to succeed in high-skill occupations; to provide more opportunities for students to gain additional skills through study or training abroad, and to encourage cross-border co- operation to boost higher education performance; to strengthen the "knowledge triangle", linking education, research and business and to create effective governance and funding mechanisms in support of excellence.

  7. Indian Science & technology policy 2003 The New Vision To build a new and resurgent India that continues to maintain its strong democratic and spiritual traditions, that remains secure not only militarily but also socially and economically, it is important to draw on the many unique civilizational qualities that define the inner strength of India; this has been intrinsically based on an integrated and holistic view of nature and of life. The Science and Technology Policy 2003 will be implemented so as to be in harmony with our world view of the larger human family all around. It will ensure that science and technology truly uplifts the Indian people and indeed all of humanity. http://dst.gov.in/stsysindia/stp2003.htm#c4 UGC 11thFive Year Plan http://www.ugc.ac.in/11plan/english11/english11plan.html

  8. Indian UGC 11thFive year plan Quality requires imparting education by enabling the students to be more creative and innovative; Relevance of higher education requires promotion of such education which serves as human resource for economic, social and cultural development of the country; To achieve that end the curriculum should be such that it gives (a) basic foundation in the various subjects and disciplines to the students (b) also promotes skills (c) facilitates employability and (d) right values that meet the human resource requirement for economic, social and cultural ends of the society, To realise these goals, UGC helps the universities and colleges to develop curriculum with latest knowledge in the subject, promote vocational and career oriented courses, and courses that promote human rights values.

  9. All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) promote innovations, R&D in established and new technologies; generation, adoption and adaptation of newer technologies to meet development requirements and for overall improvement of educational process;10(e) - formulate schemes for promoting technical education for women, handicapped and weaker sections of the society; and 10(f) - promote an effective link between technical education system and other relevant systems including R&D organizations, industry and the community. Research and development activities are considered as an essential component of higher education because of their role in creating new knowledge and insight and imparting excitement and dynamism to the educational process, as well as make them need based in view of the national requirements. AICTE Research Schemes http://www.aicte.ernet.in/ResearchSchemes.htm

  10. Association of American Universities America s Research Universities: Institutions in service to the nation If we are to remain preeminent in transforming knowledge into economic value, America's system of higher education must remain the world's leader in generating scientific and technological breakthroughs and in meeting the challenge to educate workers . The raison d' tre of the American research university is to ask questions and solve problems. Together, the nation's research universities constitute an exceptional national resource, with unique capabilities: America's research universities are at the forefront of innovation; they perform about half of the nation's basic research. The expert knowledge that is generated in our research universities is renowned worldwide; this expertise is being applied to real-world problems every day. By combining cutting-edge research with graduate and undergraduate education, our research universities are also training new generations of leaders in all fields. http://www.aau.edu/research/article.aspx?id=4670

  11. US Carnegie model of differentiating HEIs Doctorate-granting Universities Includes institutions that award at least 20 doctoral degrees per year (excluding doctoral-level degrees that qualify recipients for entry into professional practice, such as the JD, MD, PharmD, DPT, etc.). Excludes Special Focus Institutions and Tribal Colleges. RU/VH: Research Universities (very high research activity) RU/H: Research Universities (high research activity) DRU: Doctoral/Research Universities http://classifications.carnegiefoundation.org

  12. Australian definition of research publication: research publications are books, book chapters, journal articles and/or conference publications which meet the definition of research and are characterised by: substantial scholarly activity, as evidenced by discussion of the relevant literature, an awareness of the history and antecedents of work described, and provided in a format which allows a reader to trace sources of the work, including through citations and footnotes originality (i.e. not a compilation of existing works) veracity/validity through a peer validation process or by satisfying the commercial publisher processes increasing the stock of knowledge being in a form that enables dissemination of knowledge. frascati manual

  13. UK definition of research outputs (REF 2014) For the purposes of the REF, research is defined as a process of investigation leading to new insights, effectively shared: It includes work of direct relevance to the needs of commerce, industry, and to the public and voluntary sectors; scholarship; the invention and generation of ideas, images, performances, artefacts including design, where these lead to new or substantially improved insights; and the use of existing knowledge in experimental development to produce new or substantially improved materials, devices, products and processes, including design and construction. It excludes routine testing and routine analysis of materials, components and processes such as for the maintenance of national standards, as distinct from the development of new analytical techniques. It also excludes the development of teaching materials that do not embody original research.

  14. Research in art & design - a short history 1960s 1stten PhDs in art & design 1970 Coldstream report 1974 National Council for Diplomas in Art & Design merged with CNAA 1984 CNAA statement on infusing teaching with a sense of critical enquiry 1985 100thart & design PhD in the UK 1988 CNAA conference: The Matrix of Research in Art & Design Education 1992 Establishment of post-1992 universities 1996 First substantial submission from Art & Design to RAE 2000 500thPhD in Art & Design in the UK 2010 Creative arts & design PhD completions reaching 500 p.a.

  16. Creative practices and match to theories personality traits: cognitive styles: Breaking perceptual set Breaking cognitive set Understanding complexities Keeping response options open as long as possible Suspending judgement Using wide categories Remembering accurately Breaking out of performance scripts Perceiving creatively High degree of self-discipline in matters concerning work Ability to delay gratification Perseverance in face of frustration Independence of judgement Tolerance for ambiguity High degree of autonomy Absence of sex-role stereotyping Internal locus of control Willingness to take risks High level of self-initiated, task orientated striving for excellence

  17. How might we describe knowledge? 'Knowledge is information that changes something or somebody - either by becoming grounds for action, or by making an individual (or an institution) capable of different and more effective action.' (Drucker, 1990) Three types of knowledge (Goranzon, 1988): practical knowledge - from personal experience of practice knowledge of familiarity - from the work of other practitioners propositional knowledge - from the study of facts, concepts, theories 'knowledge of familiarity bestows viability on theoretical knowledge --- [and] theoretical knowledge is essential to provide a direction for experience.' (Goranzen & Josefson, 1988)
