Outlining research literacy
1. Thinking About the Emergent
Researcher
Outlining a Research Literacy
Approach
2. Some basic ideas and assumptions
• Everyone can and does carry out activities which have some of the
features of research.
• Research literacy is about developing a broad understanding of
research and its various traditions as well as being able to design,
execute and share project results.
• Gaining research literacy is an emergent, complex process. Hence,
non-linear, contextualised and ongoing. It isn’t an A to B process!!
• No model of research competence can therefore be captured in its
entirety, and hence a ‘tick-list’ approach is highly reductive and
damaging to original thought and researcher growth
• Any framework (including this one) is therefore reductive and
partial.
3. • A framework can therefore only hope to act as a starting
point.
• A philosophical framework rather than a performative one.
• This framework is dialogic in nature, i.e. it should only be
used to aid reflection, dialogue and planning.
• Split into 6 dimensions, each with a series of illustrative
aspects.
• Dialogue can go beyond the framework, indeed this should
be encouraged. It is a resource for expansion rather than a
fence for restriction.
• It should be applicable to any level of research dialogue
