Abstract
The links between research, teaching and learning are arguably at the heart of university-level education, yet the debate about the significance of such links remains ongoing. In the UK, the Department for Education and Skills (DfES) in 2003 suggested the creation of teaching-only institutions and so decoupling the links between research and teaching, which stimulated a sector-wide discussion and a general appreciation of the links. More recently, commentators are warning about a renewed threat of a split between research and teaching stemming from the growing attention on institutional ranking. Academics contribute to research and teaching in a number of ways whether they are considered research-active or not, and it may be that it would be more beneficial going forward if the debate is refocused to be based around a 'research-learning nexus' in appreciation of the growing transformation in Higher Education towards student-centred learning.
