Quah, D.
(2011).
The REF follows a model which ignores academic engagement with the public and is already being rejected by US researchers for being ‘outdated’.
The Research Excellence Framework (REF) is too busy playing catch-up with American styles of impact assessment to notice that its model is tired, old and outdated, argues Danny Quah. Any assessment of academic impact must include engagement with the public, and therefore must acknowledge the growth of academic blogging.
