Journal of Research Practice: Connecting Researchers D. P. Dash & W. Ulrich Editors, Journal of Research Practice Aug 2, 2013 First Global Conference on Research Integration and Implementation, September 8-11, 2013, Canberra, Australia.

A New Publication Culture “Previous attempts to establish broad-scope practice-oriented transdisciplinary-focus journals... do not seem to have been particularly successful” (Kueffer et al., 2007, p. 26). Question: Why? Our answer: Insufficient engagement with the actual experiences and reflections of researchers and professionals Kueffer, C., Hirsch Hadorn, G., Bammer, G., van Kerkhoff, L., & Pohl, C. (2007). Towards a publication culture in transdisciplinary research. GAIA, 16(1), Retrieved from 2

Connecting Researchers Voice of the researcher Critical reflection on research experiences Six integrative focus areas, each with its own ‘Focus Editor’:focus areas 1. Research Applications 2. Research Spaces 3. Research Education 4. Research Experiences 5. Research Philosophy 6. Research on Research Integrative themes for special issues | Integrative Research | Research Education| Interdisciplinarity | Autoethnography | Experiential Knowledge | Artistic Research | Psychodynamics | Research Assistantships* | Journal Rankings* Integrative Research Research EducationInterdisciplinarityAutoethnographyExperiential KnowledgeArtistic ResearchPsychodynamics ‘Viewpoints & Discussion’ section * Forthcoming in 2013 & 2014 Forthcoming in 2013 &

JRP: Editorial Vision Connecting Researchers … Extending Organised Inquiry … Understanding research as a type of social practice Highlighting the dynamics of research practice Deliberating on the challenges encountered by researchers Exploring how research conventions arise and change Triggering interdisciplinary dialogue and innovation Enhancing research practice in various domains and spaces JRP targets all researchers, scholars, professionals, and students, irrespective of disciplinary background. 4

Challenges Currently Faced Financial Challenge | Maintaining free access and low publishing cost | Maintaining current revenue model (institutional sponsorship + individual contributions + optional copyediting fees) | Maintaining editorial independence Quality Challenge | Attracting quality submissions | A peer-review process that benefits all participants (authors, reviewers, editors) | Balancing bibliometric criteria of quality with scholarly, educational, and practical criteria Innovation Challenge| Need to reflect new research thinking and practice: JRP Concept Hierarchy | Need to adapt to technological changes: strong technological partner (AU Press, Canada) JRP Concept HierarchyAU Press, Canada 6 ChallengeFinancialQualityInnovation How well managed?SatisfactoryWellVery well

JRP: Experience & Prospects Intellectual support from researchers around the world Well-functioning ‘learning community’ of peer reviewers Excellent technical support from our publisher, AU Press, CanadaAU Press, Canada Outstanding institutional support from Xavier, India, during the early stageXavier, India Expanded leadership team of six Focus Editors New model of cooperation with universities (current cooperation with Swinburne, Malaysia) Swinburne, Malaysia New sponsorships required from individuals and institutions Relevance and utilisation of the journal need careful monitoring Engagement with researchers needs enhancing in multiple fields Invitation: Regardless of your field of research, use JRP to promote critical reflection on how research is conducted in your field | Share your ideas with us: Thank you! 7
