Exploring Supervision Program 2012
In response to your feedback, we are continuing in 2012 to offer the Exploring Supervision Program in 'intensive' mode, outside of the teaching semester. The program structure & requirements remain the same as previously, but there is, we hope, more opportunity for you to participate!
The 2012 schedule is given below, along with information on the HDR Supervisor Induction workshop. The three ESP workshops are offered on successive days in the Easter teaching break, and then again at the end of first semester. Subject to demand, a further series may be scheduled for the end of second semester. All staff are welcome to attend all or any of these sessions whenever they are offered - you don't have to come to all three in a row.
But please do register with us first, using the links provided to access the on-line enrolment system. For more background information on the program, and for further details on taking the program for the purposes of HDR supervisor registration, please return to the Exploring Supervision Program home page.

Wednesday April 4th Thursday June 14th Morning tea provided | Exploring Supervision #3 - The product perspective This workshop looks at supervision from the product-process perspective, addressing one of the most common questions asked by HDR supervisors: 'How do I best help my student develop as a good academic writer and more broadly as an effective research communicator?'. We will examine what the research says about this issue, and we will review and test out a range of strategies using examples of students' research writing. The needs of both native and non-native writers of academic English will be considered, and supervisors are encouraged to bring along typical or problematic examples of student writing for the workshop to assist with.
