Yes, it involves a lot of relationship building and time upfront to avoid that. I was thinking particularly of models such as Participatory Action Research, where communities are involved in the research process, inc. identifying the research questions. Wld be v interested to see something like 1/

As an ex-classicist who works in a research office, my tuppence is that impact shouldn't be topdown 'us telling the public about our brilliant research + y it matters', but reversed and reframed as 'how can classicists work with communities on issues that matter 2 that community'.

Ah yes, when the naming of genocide is more offensive than the actual genocide (!).

Also, I answered about breaking the research into chunks to present at diff conferences, but forgot to answer your first question: the ethical implications idea sounds really interesting! 😊

Ah, I meant that diff conference presentations can be used to present diff sections of what will be a full paper - so the different conference papers will add up to the paper you want to write. If you mean published conference proceedings, you should be able to decline to contribute a full writeup.

researcher to an LIS one, I'd also add that it is pretty standard to treat conference papers as drafts of a full paper/ an opportunity for open peer review - so as long as you haven't published the conf papers elsewhere, you will have enough left for a full paper. Hope that helps! 2/2

I don't think there can be too many! For the AHRC arts repository scoping project at Westminster, PRVoices, the PI presented the metadata schema work at NISO, I presented the research data mapping work at IDCC, etc. So a similar approach as you have taken. Having switched from being a hums 1/

If you would like to read something else in this line, I recommend Let Them Eat Crypto by Pete Howson - there's also a great interview with the author on the Pluto Press podcast (spotify) if you enjoy audio/ want a taster first!

So it is about biases, but also the added value you bring with your particular subjectivity.

I found the introduction to 'Research as Resistance: Critical, Indigenous, and Anti-Oppressive Approaches' (2005) (eds. Leslie Brown and Susan Strega) helpful > sets out how a pos. stmt is about relationships of power, and how where you sit in that matrix permeates how you approach your subject.

Found out one of our researchers has designed a browser plugin that, when conducting a literature search, sorts results by journal impact factor 🥴 Pray for us when we go to speak to the school about responsible metrics!

Yes to that last sentiment! A little digression from your main point, but fwiw I think your article on teaching Ovid is one of the only ones that gets it right, for that very reason. I.e. there is a feminist way we can approach and teach X text without slipping to 'and therefore X ~is~ feminist'.

Anything particular you are after? Westminster does games design - just had a quick look on libsearch and there seems to be a good selection.... there might be a few you can ILL. Lots of ebooks too (🤫).
