ICT: Collaboration, innovation and integration - an action research study of the development of a new ICT career learning tool.
(2016)
Walsh, Bernadette
Abstract:
The internet provides a significant platform from which people can explore and develop their career thinking, learning and development. This thesis is an action research study of collaboratively developing an innovative ICT career learning tool to support adults with their career planning. This study is based on my real-world practice and is action research in action. Central is the importance of the adult guidance relationship in supporting individuals with their career decisions, and how ICT career tools can inform a collaborative meaning-making process. This blended approach within adult guidance offers client’s more opportunities to become proactive and empowered. Career learning is not the sole responsibility or unique to the guidance relationship. The role of adult education in providing ICT career exploration opportunities within group learning is discussed. Aware that not all adults are in a position or wish to access ICT career tools, this research recognises the barriers a...

Bridges Between Research and Practice in University Lifelong Learning. Policy Report and Recommendations
(2014)
Finn, Josephine
Abstract:
Adult Education and more specifically Lifelong Learning is usually recognised as a field where research and practice should be closely connected. While the importance of encouraging research which informs policy and practice in Lifelong Learning is widely acknowledged by many, the ways in which knowledge could be more effectively exchanged and used to improve practices is not yet fully understood. A key aim of the DIALOGUE project has been to facilitate opportunities for dialogue between researchers, practitioners and policy makers which encourages knowledge exchange and promotes new ways of working together. A key issue is how scientific knowledge could be integrated into everyday life for the benefit of the individuals, society and the economy. The DIALOGUE project has identified policies and practices outlined in a series of reports and case studies which also highlight models of good practice and demonstrate ways in which practitioners can participate in research. The D...

Teaching for Thinking: an action research inquiry into the Pedagogical potential of modern literature to foster critical thinking and facilitate critical consciousness in third level students.
(2016)
De Brún, Christa
Abstract:
This thesis explores the pedagogical use of modern literature in fostering critical thinking and facilitating critical consciousness in adulthood. This thesis will make a small but significant contribution to knowledge in the field. My original contribution to knowledge lies in releasing the pedagogical potential of modern literature to foster critical thinking and critical consciousness in adulthood. The gap I intend to fill with this research is the gap between theory and practice; while we aspire to develop critically engaged students, the banking model (Freire 1970) we employ negates the very possibility of this outcome. My research aims to consolidate the role of critical thinking and critical consciousness in education and to embed these concepts in third level education through the medium of literature. This research is focused on third level students in their first year of study. It is facilitated by literature circles and class discussion, and independent learning is foster...

Crowdsourcing and Crowdfunding Mechanisms for Scientific Research Funding Agencies – A Preliminary Entity Categorisation Matrix (PECM)
(2014)
Cullina, Eoin; Conboy, Kieran; Morgan, Lorraine
Abstract:
Research has shown that crowdsourcing and crowdfunding are accelerators and facilitators of societal, business and institutional change, presenting numerous potential benefits to the triple helix of government, industry and university. Scientific Research Funding Agencies play an important role in the triple helix and play an important role in the development and instantiation of public policy. E-participation and e-government platforms have invited a new actor to the triple helix in the form of the crowd. The citizen as a member of the crowd presents potential solutions to public needs. This paper shows that whereas numerous models are available for the private and public use of crowdsourcing and crowdfunding, a limited number of models are available for use by science funding agencies. Accordingly, this research in progress paper attempts to fill this gap by examining the actors involved in the crowd process and presenting a preliminary categorisation of the associated types of us...

Blended stakeholder participation for responsible Information Systems research
(2020)
McCarthy, Stephen; Rowan, Wendy; Lynch, Laura; Fitzgerald, Ciara
Abstract:
Information Systems (IS) research is often conducted under the assumption that technology use leads to positive outcomes for different stakeholders. However, many IS studies demonstrate limited evidence of having engaged with the stakeholders that they claim benefit and speak on behalf of. It is therefore not surprising that examples abound of where technology use has failed ‘to make the world a better place’, or worse still has contributed towards unintended negative outcomes. In light of these concerns, calls have recently emerged for responsible research and innovation (RRI) studies in IS to understand how different stakeholder groups can have a voice in complex socio-technical issues. In this paper, we take steps towards addressing this call by presenting case study findings from a responsible IS research project which combined ‘blended’ face-to-face and online participatory techniques. The case study relates to a large-scale consultation undertaken in a 24-month European projec...

A lens on two classrooms: implications for research on teaching
(2019)
Nic Mhuirí, Siún
Abstract:
This paper uses the Teaching for Robust Understanding framework (Schoenfeld, 2013) as an analytic lens on episodes of mathematics teaching from two different countries. This lens highlights differences in teaching approaches across the two settings and draws attention to the need for further interrogation of how culture, curriculum and values inform teaching practices. It also has implications for research practices as it shows that the theoretical frameworks and methodological tools that are used in research are not value free or culturally neutral.

The enduring field: Exploring researcher emotions in covert research with antagonistic organisations
(2019)
Maguire, Heather; McCartan, Andrew; Nash, Catherine Jean; Browne, Kath
Abstract:
This paper explores the emotional dimensions of doing covert research with antagonistic organisations. Drawing on the experiences of three researchers who identify as lesbian, gay, and LGBT ally, who covertly attended public and semipublic conferences and events organised by groups with heteroactivist positionings over two years, we consider the multiple, nuanced and complex emotional dimensions of being “behind enemy lines” (Jansson, 2010). We argue for greater consideration of the emotional spaces covert research creates, as in our case a “closet” space was produced which suppressed our sexualities or allyship. Furthermore, we argue that the process of doing covert research is one that both precedes and exceeds being in the field, and as such, we need to pay attention to researcher emotion as a process that begins long before we step into the field and continues long after we leave.

Participating in a community-based participatory research module: A reflective inquiry
(2020)
Hally, Ruth; Murphy, Aisling; O'Connell, John; Robinson, Sarah; Pyrz, Katarzyna; Burns, Kenneth; O'Mahony, Catherine
Abstract:
This commentary piece, using a narrative inquiry frame, explores the experiences of five individuals who came together to participate in a community-based participatory research (CBPR) module. Owing to the short time frame of this accredited module, when the module was live, a particular focus was directed towards dialogical techniques to build trust and respect within the group and subsequently generate potential research questions. The inaugural experience of collaborating on a CBPR module stimulated unique feelings, reflections and learnings for participants, many of which took time to surface. This article aims to make sense of those experiences to support those wishing to engage in CBPR initiatives.

Inclusion of research labs in Engineering as learning playgrounds

Inclusion of research labs in Engineering as learning playgrounds
(2019)
Garcia Gunning, Fatima C.
Abstract:
Traditional teaching practices in Ireland for “hard”-science subjects, such as Physics or Engineering, are still prevalently based on whiteboard content delivery, PowerPoint-based methods, and sometimes, within under-funded purposed-built teaching labs, leaving very little manoeuvre or willingness to incorporate student interaction, in addition to a strong focus on end of semester exam based assessment of learning. Very often any deviation from traditional methods of teaching and assessment are perceived as “dumbing down” the course. The proposal of this Lightning Talk is to show how enabling flexibility in the teaching environment, by incorporating either topical research discussions or bringing a high-tech research lab to a teaching module, can stimulate student engagement, curiosity, discovery and learning. Moreover, the talk will also contain a discussion on using different assessment techniques, such as consultation surveys and reports, where a richer picture of true understand...

Learning through action research and technology
(2010)
Farren, Margaret; Crotty, Yvonne
Abstract:
In the context of changing or improving social practice, in education in particular, it emerges that teachers’ values and concerns need to be addressed and that this can be done through involving teachers in critical reflective dialogue and developing a more open attitude to educational practice. The focus of this article is on the action research approach to learning of the MSc in Education and Training Management programme (eLearning strand) and in particular, how participants of the programme engage in action research. It integrates improving practice with knowledge creation.

Agility from first principles : reconstructing the concept of agility in information systems development

Agility from first principles : reconstructing the concept of agility in information systems development
(2009)
Conboy, Kieran
Abstract:
Awareness and use of agile methods has grown rapidly among the information systems development (ISD) community in recent years. Like most previous methods, the development and promotion of these methods have been almost entirely driven by practitioners and consultants, with little participation from the research community during the early stages of evolution. While these methods are now the focus of more and more research efforts, most studies are still based on XP, Scrum, and other industry-driven foundations, with little or no conceptual studies of ISD agility in existence. As a result, this study proposes that there are a number of significant conceptual shortcomings with agile methods and the associated literature in its current state, including a lack of clarity, theoretical glue, parsimony, limited applicability, and naivety regarding the evolution of the concept of agility in fields outside systems development. Furthermore, this has significant implications for practitioners,...

Research and development in the Irish electronics industry
(1993)
Madden, Joe
Abstract:
The electronics industry is a rapidly changing technology driven industry. Intensive research and development activity in electronics has been partly responsible for the emergence of Japan as an economic superpower and the rapid development of the Korean economy. Following the publication of the Telesis Review of Industrial Policy in 1982, the Irish Government undertook a gradually more interventionist policy towards the indigenous electronics industry. In the ten years since Telesis there has been significant growth in business expenditure on R&D in electronics but this growth has come exclusively from multinational companies. Indigenous expenditure on R&D has remained static but has become concentrated in specific sectors. These sectors are industrial control, security systems and electronics for the building industry where economies of scale are not important and in the power supply sectors where economies of scale are not possible. Factors critical to effective resear...

Challenges in recruiting participants in a multi-centre study on symptom experiences and self care strategies of bowel symptoms following colo-rectal surgery
(2012)
Landers, Margaret; McCarthy, Geraldine; Savage, Eileen
Abstract:
Aim: The purpose of this paper is to present some of the challenges found to be problematic in recruiting individuals following sphincter saving surgery for rectal cancer for a multicentre study. While the focus of the study is on symptom experiences and management of bowel symptoms following colo-rectal surgery, the paper will concentrate solely on the challenges experienced in recruiting a sample for the study. Background Recruitment of an adequate number of participants is a challenge for researchers in any area of research involving patients. Enrolment of patients treated for rectal cancer poses particular challenges because the total population of this group in a given country can be small. The use of multiple centres was required to obtain the required number of participants for the current study. Findings: In multicentre studies, researchers can encounter substantial challenges in obtaining ethical approval, accessing clinical sites and gaining direct access to patients. Thes...

CARDI research brief: age as a determining factor in the treatment of prostate cancer
(2012)
Centre for Ageing Research and Development in Ireland (CARDI)
Abstract:
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in Ireland, with 3,609 cases diagnosed in 2008. A new study funded by CARDI states that the rate is 12 times higher in men aged 70+ than in younger men; deaths from prostate cancer are 74 times higher for men aged 70+ than for those under 70. The research, led by Dr Anna Gavin at the Northern Ireland Cancer Registry, found that access to urologists and curative treatment has increased for all men since the mid-1990s. However older men are less likely to see a urologist or have radical treatment than younger men. The research was not able to identify the reasons for the variance in treatment of older men, which may reflect the clinical condition of older men, including the presence of other disease and their fitness for treatment.

A handbook for research in general practice
(1986)
Comber, Harry; Irish College of General Practitioners. Education and Research Committee
Abstract:
Why do research? Medical students and doctors in training are asked to accept two incompatible view. of medicine - firstly, that it is a scientific discipline based on objective research, and secondly, that everything which they are taught is true and not to be questioned. In the environment of examinations and career competition, the second view tends to gain precedence, and only occasionally does the young doctor glimpse the very shaky foundations on which 'scientific medicine' is actually based. As a practicing general practitioner, however, he soon discovers facts that conflict with the 'facts' which he swallowed whole in medical school; he discovers that what he has learned is one part fact to every ten parts of educated guesswork; and that there are very few definite answers to the questions which arise in his daily work. For most of us then, our practice is mainly a matter of trial and error.

Analysis of the DCAD survey: highest and lowest ranking areas of interest for professional development in regard to current work interest (teaching and research)
(2011)
Kozina, Ekaterina
Abstract:
The following sections present and discuss the role of a contextual variable – current work interests in survey respondents’ views in regard to the highest and lowest ranking areas of interest for professional development. The analyses were carried out for the comparison of the views of lecturing staff across four universities and four institutes of technology in the Dublin region. In total, Part 3 of the questionnaire contained 25 areas of professional development activities distributed evenly over the following six themes: i) planning and design; ii) delivery and practice; iii) feedback on teaching; iv) peer to peer opportunities; v) scholarship and research and; vi) personal and professional development and leadership. The attitudes towards these activities were explored through the analysis of data collected in response to the statements of Q14-Q19. The questions required the answer on a four point ordinal scale indicating the extent of interest from “no interest” to “great inte...

The Research Output of Business Schools and Business Scholars in Ireland
(2010)
TOL, RICHARD S. J.
Abstract:
The research performance of business scholars on the island of Ireland is evaluated based on their number of publication, number of citations, h-index and the same divided by the numbers of years since the first publication. Data were taken from Scopus. There is a large variation in both life-time achievement and annual production. Almost half of the 748 scholars have not published in an academic journal. Men perform better than women. More senior people perform better. There are distinct differences between disciplines, with accountancy performing poorly. On average, scholars in Northern Ireland perform better than scholars in the Republic. However, Trinity College Dublin has the top rank among the eleven business schools; Queen??_??__??_s University Belfast and University College Dublin share the second place; and NUI Galway and the University of Ulster share the fourth spot. Irish business schools specialize in particular research areas so that mergers would lead to schools can s...

Analysis of the Evaluation of Application-Led Research in Pervasive Computing
(2006)
CLARKE, SIOBHAN; LINEHAN, EAMONN
Abstract:
Pervasive computing researchers typically conduct their research through the development of prototype applications. Such research is motivated by a well-defined problem and evaluated by assessing the impact of deployed solutions. Accordingly, the evaluation phase assumes a critically important role in this process. Failure to sufficiently evaluate an application can have wide ranging negative effects. Differences between the pervasive computing and standard desktop paradigms preclude the use of established evaluation tech-niques without significant modification. In this paper we present a survey of the state of the art in pervasive application evaluation. We discuss the prominent challenges in conducting a pervasive computing evaluation and assess how the surveyed application evaluations have been affected by these challenges. We make recommendations for researchers conducting hypothesis-led pervasive technology evaluations.

What will I do? Toward an existential ethics for first person action research practice

What will I do? Toward an existential ethics for first person action research practice
(2013)
COGHLAN, DAVID
Abstract:
How first person practice engages with the process of valuing has not received much attention in action research. This article takes the question, `what will I do?? as the foundation for first person ethical inquiry. It explores the process of how we are able to experience, to understand and to make value judgements about what is `worthwhile? or `truly good? and so to make choices and to take action. The article marks a move away from a focus on ethics as a set of coherent concepts and definitions to a focus on interiority where ethics are considered in terms of appropriating the activities of valuing, a move from a system based on logic to a system grounded in method, from ethics imposed from outside to personal authenticity.
