Sharing research represents an essential part of the research process. The act of making one’s research public (or publication as we commonly refer to it) is so important, it can be argued, that research ceases to be research if it is not shared or published. A key reason for the sharing (or publication) of research is, and always has been, the betterment of society. This obtains particularly in education, which has as its central focus the advancement of the public good. Since it first started to see widespread use in education in the 1990s, the Internet has affected a transformative impact on research publication and sharing. Web technologies have made research available on levels never previously conceivable. Platforms such as Routledge Open Research can enable researchers to share their work at different stages in its development, and in innovative and imaginative, new ways. It can serve as an important stepping stone towards the appreciation and valorisation of a wider range of research outputs and resources, beyond the mono-media academic manuscript. It is our pleasure, as inaugural international academic advisors, to introduce this exciting new hub for research in education and educational technology, Routledge Open Research’s new collection, Digital Pedagogy. As a flagship collection, we hope it affords a new space for educators and researchers around the world to communicate, collaborate and share their concepts and ideas, methodologies, data, outputs and resources in dialogic ways, where the educational community at large can participate meaningfully and creatively in the constructive conversation that is the hallmark of all engaged research in education and digital pedagogy.
