PROLEARN: e-PhD Workshop

11. 02. 2005

Prolearn Academy & Prolearn Interactive Media are pleased to announce sponsorship of a half day workshop.

TITLE: e-PhDs: Developing Research Skills, Presence and Collaboration at a Distance

Part of doctoral training is learning what it means to be an active member of a research community, both local and global. This is picked up by osmosis when physically co-located in a research group, but it is important that distance research students do not become second class citizens, invisible to their host research groups, and unaware of events and daily social life. They must of course also be able to work synchronously and asynchronously with supervisors and other colleagues. This workshop will demonstrate to participants how developments in ICT make it increasingly simple to foster these critical skills.

DATE: The workshop will be held on Friday 11th February, 2005. It will start with Lunch @ Noon, followed by the Workshop Session 2-5pm.

VENUE: The Knowledge Media Institute, The Open University, Walton Hall,
Milton Keynes, MK7 6AA, UK.
