[IRST @IrishRST]

A short overview of IRST 2019-20 second training day, held at @englishstudioD at the end of June. Summer break well in effect for this year's researchers, with them due to reemerge in time to submit their first drafts in November! Good luck! https://t.co/iy8tblNtNa #research #elt

[IRST @IrishRST]

Training Day 2 Sat 29th with a focus on collating and interpreting data collected as well as the writing up of research, hosted by @_EnglishStudio. Looking forward to hearing from @BenBeaumont9 @Liam_ELT @MarianneJordan_ @niamhHIPPO @ReddinGavin among others #irst1920 #research

[Dr. Conor O'Reilly @ConzieSays]

Teachers as researchers is certainly a theme in vogue in the #ELT/#tefl/#tesol world. This #free ebook on the subject looks like it may be a useful resource for interested practitioners. @ELTIreland @EAP_in_Ireland @IrishRST @ELTAdvocacy

[Jessica @JessicaGarska]

Why it's so important to be a practitioner of EAP when researching EAP. 100% agree, that means those at a Master's and PhD level too researching EAP - practice what you research and you may change what you research #baleap2019 @tcdslscs @IrishRST @EAP_in_Ireland

[Cat Bennett @Teaching_Cat]

Really enjoying reading about Practitioner Research and how it relates to Exploratory Practice for a paper I'm writing at the moment. I know some others know a lot about this already (@sal_consoli) so I've got a lot to catch up on! @IrishRST @UCDLanguages

[Niamh Kelly @niamhTIGIM]

@mfeldstein67 @IrishRST It sounds great, been looking st the site. @IrishRST are working on building research into teaching practices into the #ELT space here in Ireland, so all of us involved in that will be interested in the empirical educators. I'll be keeping an eye out for CMU's annoucement 😊

[Niamh Kelly @niamhTIGIM]

Attention all #edtech enthusiasts...Carnegie Mellon are releasing their software as open source to benefit the wider #highered community & inspire #empiricaleducators I just heard this phrase today & I love it @IrishRST it's about improving teaching through data collection 🌼

@GohLt1 @Teaching_Cat Good one Gerard! They would love to have you on board! @IrishRST @ChrisPatrickF @GohLt1 @Teaching_Cat

[Cat Bennett @Teaching_Cat]

In case I forgot to mention it, @IrishRST, I'm ready to join 2019-2020's scheme! I heard @annamorrisss is joining too. Maybe she can convince @GohLt1

[Cat Bennett @Teaching_Cat]

Two fiends make for a successful scheme! Glad to know who I can ask SPSS questions to...wondering if I could co-author a project with @GohLt1 on corpora in the classroom..? @IrishRST

[Bárbara Hernandes @barbara_elt]
