The Drawing Research Network was established in 2003 and now has over 400 members. Participants are based in universities and colleges of art and design with established teaching and/or research profiles in drawing. Some have an interest in, for example, drawing therapy, the cross-curricular role of drawing in schools or digital drawing others simply have an interest in drawings and the drawing process which might include in making, thinking about and communicating on drawing. Individuals and institutions use the Network to communicate news, to explore possibilities for cooperation in drawing research, to formulate collaborative projects and to share outputs. Membership of the Network is free.

Music Therapy Research website

Dr Eddie Norman and Liz Norman have worked together to produce a music therapy research website giving an overview of research and encouraging participants. The site also provides a selection of YouTube clips where an accurate and concise overview of many of the aspects of this subject are covered.

Since the original design and production, the site has expanded to feature video contributions from students in the Department of Design and Technology demonstrating some of the products they have designed responding to a therapists brief. Simcoemedia has mainly been involved with the overall layout and design of the site as well as contributing to maintenance.
