A new paper about education research in the UK. Colin Foster, Hugues (Hugo) Lortie Forgues, Elizabeth Stokoe and I analysed the journal articles that were submitted to the REF education subpanel in 2021 and 2014, and tried to predict unit-level peer review outcomes. bera-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/be…
