What is Research Unbound?
- The idea is to encourage researchers to share and discuss their findings
- Research Unbound is built on WordPress, the popular blogging platform
- This means you can post updates and other people can comment
- Researchers may include practitioners, policy-makers and academics, as well as people supported by services
- Your research may be complete or in progress
Subject matter and acceptance
- Your topic should have relevance to practitioners in Scotland
- We have a small editorial review group but there is no peer review
- Iriss reserves the right to accept or reject submissions at its sole discretion
- If your research is not selected for inclusion we may offer suggestions on other ways of sharing
How it works
- We will set up a blog and give you instructions
- If your research is just beginning you can start with a page discussing its objectives
- You add information and comment as your research progresses
- If your research is complete you can submit all your findings
- We encourage the inclusion of multimedia: still images, video and audio
