- Date: 22 Jun 2010
- Start Time: 02:00 pm
- Location/venue: University of Glasgow Learning & Teaching Centre Southpark House 64 Southpark Avenue Glasgow , Scotland, G12 8LB
This seminar is led by Dr Tai L Peseta, Curriculum, Learning and Teaching Centre, La Trobe University, Australia.
The seminar will draw on three sources to examine ideas about research supervision: how to develop it and why the relationship sometimes breaks down. The first source is a set of ideas about teaching taken from the student learning research literature (Prosser & Trigwell, 1999). The second source is a set of ideas about conceptions of research taken from the work of Brew (2001). The third source is a set of case studies of good supervision practice taken from a project developed at the University of Sydney (Kandlbinder and Peseta, 1999). The goal of the seminar is to use these sources to raise some questions about the individual supervision relationship (supervisor and the student) as well as programs for institutional development.
