Making research work - institutional support for research-based learning as a form of active learning

Does RBL in the main provide students with the chance to engage in the cocreation of knowledge in keeping with the aspirations of active learning? Or is RBL-lite the reality for time and resource stressed staff and institutions? This paper draws on the learning from an earlier EUA Thematic Peer group on research-teaching linkages and provides insights into institutional arrangements in support of research-based learning. The role of mentoring transdisciplinary learning and connecting with society will be explored with due consideration for the constraints and enablers for this approach to student learning.
