Articulating your creative practice as research in writing

This workshop is designed to support creative practice researchers in writing compelling 300-word contextual statements that clearly articulate their research. Using a structural formula derived from an analysis of successful REF 2021 submissions, participants will engage in practical exercises to craft their own statements. The session will explore how to articulate the impact of creative practice research, addressing specific challenges faced by creative practitioners. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how to communicate their research's significance and impact effectively.
