Collaborative approaches in which social capital resource (e.g. knowledge\, resource and support) is exchanged with colleagues can serve as an effective way of facilitating such learning. Analyses of the benefits of social capital networks have primarily focused on intra-school communities of teachers from individual schools. However\, inter-school networks are potentially richer sources of social capital\, since they offer access to resources beyond that already available. With this presentation we draw on the findings of a systematic review\, we seek to outline: 1) what inter-school networks are available internationally; 2) the features and activities present within them; and 3) evidence of impact. Our findings derive from 111 research outputs and highlight: the diverse range of different inter-school networks that exist\, their myriad purposes and how these networks are enacted. Simultaneously\, however\, our review only identifies limited reliable evidence of the impact of inter-school social capital networks. We conclude by identifying what research is needed in future to improve our understanding of inter-school social capital networks. \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenters:\nRuth Luzmore: is a Research Fellow in the School of Education at the University of Southampton. Ruth has extensive experience in the education sector\, having worked in various roles within state schools\, including headteacher. Ruth’s current research includes developing innovative methods for training soft skills through video games for EU Horizon funded MEGASKILLs project; the role of Professional Learning Networks to support school leaders and teachers to raise standards; and\, most recently work on the Ideas-Informed Society. \nProfessor Chris Brown: is Professor of Education (University of Southampton)\, Head of the Southampton Education School and Distinguished Visiting Professor\, University of Tübingen. Chris has a long-standing interest in how people use networks to improve teaching and learning within schools and across school systems. Chris has written or edited some 22 books and nearly 100 journal articles in the broad sphere of research\, evidence and ideas-use. \nAbout Our Webinar Series\nThis event is part of our regular webinar sessions for social capital researchers including PhD/master students. These sessions include invited presentations from prominent scholars as well as presentations by PhD students and experts in professional practice.\nFor social capital researchers\, these sessions are an opportunity to hear about the latest social capital research and insights from scholars working on the concept. They can be a great way to connect with people\, to get advice\, discuss ideas or issues\, get suggestions for literature to read\, or you can just listen. \nAre you researching social capital and want to present your research? Click here for more information and to submit a proposal. \nGenerally\, presentations can be 20 to 30 mins. The content of your presentation will depend on your research stage.

You can connect with people\, ask questions\, get advice\, and discuss ideas or issues. \nWho is this for? \nAlthough this workshop is focused on PhD students\, we welcome anyone conducting research on social capital. \nWho will run the workshop? \nBeverly Sloan has a PhD in Organisational Leadership from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. She is a veteran of the United States Air Force with more than 32 years of service. Her leisure activity includes mentoring masters and doctoral candidates on research practices. \nHow will the session work? \nIn these sessions\, we aim to discuss the research process. This includes defining research; discussing research significance\, problems\, and purposes; examining your worldview and philosophical stance; developing research questions\, sub-questions\, and hypotheses; and your theoretical or conceptual framework. We will discuss the initial literature review and its purpose in helping you build your initial central research question. We will use the initial research question to guide the preliminary literature review. During the preliminary literature review\, we will consider defining your key concepts and how they will drive your overall literature review. As we discuss the literature review\, the goal is to refine the research question\, identify gaps in the literature\, and focus the literature review on the central aspects of your research question. This should also help us develop a good outline for our literature review and identify variables or sub-research questions. Once we understand how the literature review shapes our study\, we will move on to research methods and design or our roadmap for collecting data. Then we will move on to data analysis and conclude by combining all the pieces. This will not be a linear process\, but it will be a process. \nAccess requirements \nWe seek to make our events accessible\, and this is no exception. If there is something that will help you to engage more effectively in this session\, please email us on: events@intsocialcapital.org. Sometimes\, it’s the small things that make a big difference\, so do email us if you have an access request. We recognise that not all participants are able to attend all sessions for the full duration. You are free to join us and leave at any time during the session. We request that you have your name on Zoom (this can be just a first name) to make it easier for us to facilitate the session and address participants correctly. It helps to have cameras on\, but we recognise that sometimes this isn’t possible\, for a variety of reasons.
