KnE Insights Series: Transform Knowledge into Wisdom

The KnE Insights series explores theories, methods, concepts, and implementation strategies that illuminate new approaches to achieving academic and research excellence. These insights are based on Knowledge E’s international expertise and experience supporting researchers, educators, universities, and governments in advancing their abilities to compete and thrive in the global knowledge economy.

A Guide to Peer Review

Peer review processes can be time-consuming, but they play an essential role in maintaining the scientific integrity and quality of scholarly research. This peer review guide by KnE Publishing explains and simplifies the review cycle and lists the elements that editors typically look for in a research paper. The guide also provides valuable tips for reviewers that could help them decide which papers to review and how to best employ their expertise when reviewing research.

 

A Guide to Grant Proposals

Who pays the high costs associated with conducting research? Research can be truly costly, and attracting grant funds can be a tricky process with plenty of disheartening rejections.

Though delivering an exceptionally well-written grant proposal is definitely one of the most significant parts of applying for a research grant, both early-career researchers and accomplished scientists spend a considerable amount of time reading and discovering more about different funding opportunities before they begin drafting their proposals.

Interdisciplinary and Transdisciplinary Higher Education and Research

Strategies for developing strong knowledge economies and achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs) require mindsets and skills for integrating scientific knowledge from different disciplines (interdisciplinary) with practical, political, and local society knowledge (transdisciplinary). Higher education and research institutions are key to achieving these goals and need innovative approaches to support these goals. Knowledge E provides a key starting place for developing interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary higher education and research.

Exponential Education

It is essential to have guiding principles and criteria that keep curriculum development and delivery methods anchored firmly to effectiveness and efficiency. Knowledge E’s (KnE) educational model integrates and leverages selected theories and methods from the domains of education, systems dynamics, computer science, psychology, and business. A deeper understanding of these theories and their relationships provides a strong foundation to guide innovation, decision-making, evaluation, and regular improvement of educational programmes. KnE calls it exponential education.
