International research collaborations engage multiple countries, researchers, and universities. This enhances the magnitude of contextual challenges, including legal and ethical dimensions across various jurisdictions, that must be bridged in qualitative research regardless of discipline, also in the construction of informed consents. From a…

The relation of social ethics to knowledge production is explored through a study about academic research enquiry on minoritised and racialised populations. Despite social change related to migration and ethnicity being a feature of contemporary Northern Ireland, local dynamics and actors seemed under-studied by its research-intensive 'anchor…

The growing use of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) in academic research has created a need to understand graduate students' intention to adopt this technology. This study extended the technology acceptance model (TAM) to explore the factors that influence graduate students' willingness to use GAI for academic research purposes. We…

In this paper, the author delves into the transformative nature of ethnographic research methodologies, going beyond their theoretical and epistemological dimensions.

Responsible and ethical conduct of research (RECR) education is essential for the preparation of future scientists but is often overlooked for undergraduate scholars. To address this concern, the Ethics Network for Course-based Opportunities in Undergraduate Research (ENCOUR) engaged facilitators of course-based undergraduate research experiences…

The implementation of context-based chemistry programs has been started before 40 years ago since 1980s in an attempt to make the learning of chemistry more meaningful for students. Consequent to its lengthy, there has been a steady increase in the number of interventional context-based (ICB) approach chemistry studies investigating the effect of…

When undertaking research with young people in educational contexts researchers are likely to encounter many challenges. This paper is a discussion of the barriers encountered by a researcher who sought to capture the educational journeys of excluded young people. The study aimed to move beyond young people simply participating in research to…
