This project has evolved into a collaborative project funded by the Research Committee's grants 2020-22. This researcher is testing the idea that these resources can be made available in a one-stop access point to all students at all levels, but students entering DBS from the Indian subcontinent and surrounding areas is the focus of the initial research. What students lack at times is a particular guide-path to these resources. It has come to our attention that there are a variety of resources available for students both through libraries and through open access via the web. Research is an important skill at third level and is taught at various points throughout a student’s career. In short, this small project has grown into a large applied project with several distinct outputs that have added significantly to the teaching and knowledge in the area. This added to the core teaching of the module and also produced a peer-reviewed paper, several conference papers and posters.

The project received a second life when it was conceived as a way to interact with students through the co-creation of video content. The first part of the project produced and tested the module while also delivering a peer-reviewed paper, several conference papers and posters as well as internal publications at UCD. The initial project was a collaboration between UCD Library, the School of Information & Communication Studies, and the School of Psychology in UCD’s College of Social Sciences & Law, to design and deliver a six-unit, GPA- neutral, self-paced online module called Research Accelerator for the Social Sciences, using a combination of existing open educational resources and new material. The project produced a highly successful module at UCD as well as several significant research outputs. This project was a perfect example of Applied Research in practice. This paper will present an analysis of the Research Accelerator Project and how it grew from a small idea into many papers and research productions over a several year period.
