Summary
An Educational Research Alliance for the 21st Century: exploring the interconnected relationships between new identities, new technologies and new pedagogies.
. This Initiative creates an Educational Research Alliance (ERA) between three strong research domains in order to address the problem of how best to educate current and future generations in contemporary times. These domains have previously focused independently on new identities, new technologies, and new pedagogies and each has achie ....An Educational Research Alliance for the 21st Century: exploring the interconnected relationships between new identities, new technologies and new pedagogies.
. This Initiative creates an Educational Research Alliance (ERA) between three strong research domains in order to address the problem of how best to educate current and future generations in contemporary times. These domains have previously focused independently on new identities, new technologies, and new pedagogies and each has achieved significant but localised results. Examining the interconnections and relationships between these domains is necessary to promote the kind of scholarly innovation able to facilitate the creation of truly relevant, responsive, futures-oriented educational systems.
In taking up this challenge ERA adopts a cross-generational and cross-disciplinary approach to assembling an international research network.

This e-Research project utilises grid-enabled technology to share and extend existing practices in video analysis on an international scale. Grid-enabled collaborative analysis offers definite advantages in comparison with web-mediated streamed data sharing and analysis using non-grid approaches. A grid-enabled facility to which data can be incrementally added and iteratively coded and analysed in a synchronous or asynchronous fashion on an international scale will transform the nature of international collaborative activity in the social sciences, where the complex data (text, graphic, audio or video) have challenged international research teams seeking to establish highly interactive collaborative partnerships.Read moreRead less
