RESOURCES ON LINKING TEACHING AND RESEARCH
“I believe that the main hope for realising a genuinely student centred
undergraduate education lies in re-engineering the teaching–research
nexus.”
Paul Ramsden (2001) Pro Vice Chancellor (Learning and Teaching),
University of Sydney
Resources on the web sites from these two UK projects can be used by
academics and institutional managers world-wide to make more effective
links between discipline based research and student learning:
? Project LINK focuses on linking teaching and research in Built
Environment Disciplines: http://www.brookes.ac.uk/schools/planning/LTRC/
? Linking Teaching and Research in the Disciplines is an LTSN Generic
Centre Project focussed on supporting the link in 7 other disciplines
(and others may follow) http://www.brookes.ac.uk/genericlink/
Resources include:
1. Change Strategies for institutions and departments to develop
teaching /research links
http://www.brookes.ac.uk/schools/planning/LTRC/change/change-strategies.htm
2. Good Practice Guidelines for course teams and institutions
http://www.brookes.ac.uk/schools/planning/LTRC/guidelines/section4-1.htm
3. Booklet on department strategies to enhance teaching/research links

4. International listing of relevant web sites – and please tell us of
