Successful Doctoral Training in Nursing and Health Sciences: A Guide for Supervisors, Students and Advisors
by Debra Jackson Patricia M. Davidson Kim UsherThis textbook is a practical, user-friendly and essential guide for doctoral students, their supervisors and advisors and administrators of doctoral programs in nursing and health sciences. Nurses and health scientists have a relatively young tradition of doctoral training, and this means students often come to doctoral studies without a clear understanding of what is required to be successful at this level of education. Supporting students to successful completion of doctoral studies involves a complex fusion of skills, and yet researchers and academics receive little specialist training in this crucial area of teaching and learning. Strong pedagogies around doctoral supervision and writing are essential because in addition to the scientific, research and educative skills required, it is important to be able to establish and maintain enabling professional relationships within which both parties can thrive, and that can withstand the years of critique needed for doctoral work. The authors offer supervisors, advisors, students and administrators practical advice on helping students thrive, and steering them through various challenges that can arise during doctoral candidature. With a focus on nursing and health sciences, the authors take a global approach, recognising the international focus of doctoral training in nursing and health sciences. The authors of this book are experienced supervisors and advisors to doctoral students and together, have well over 100 successful doctoral completions and more than 1000 publications. They draw on a series of interviews and case studies to share their knowledge and experience and provide insights and guidance to inspire and support student progression and ensure students get the most out of their doctoral studies.

Systemic Cognition and Education: Empowering Students for Excellence in Life
by Ibrahim A. HallounThis book offers pedagogic and governance foundations and guidelines for systemic education. It provides an overall systems-based picture of what formal education should be about, and of how things should be carried out in practice, in order to empower students – and teachers – for success in life. It transcends traditional disciplinary education, showing how systemic, praxis immersive, convergence education (SPICE) produces graduates who know how to think outside the box and excel in practical real-life situations. Drawing on philosophy, cognition, and the latest developments in neuroscience, the book calls for systemic pedagogical frameworks that allow for different curricula to be coherently and efficiently designed, and consistently and systematically deployed across different disciplines and various grade levels in the context of mind-and-brain based experiential learning ecologies.This volume is a major design and practice reference for school teachers, university professors, graduate students, along with interested educators, educationists, and stakeholders in various sectors of society.

Teachers as Researchers in Innovative Learning Environments: Case Studies from Australia and New Zealand Schools
by Julia E. Morris Wesley ImmsThis book presents and discusses the results of the ‘Plans to Pedagogy’ (P2P) project that was implemented across 13 diverse Australian and New Zealand schools, each with a unique school context and specific learning environment issue. The project employed a participatory approach, where academic researchers partnered with school leaders and staff in each school to co-design, implement, and evaluate research targeting the school’s chosen issue. It explores and analyses the case studies from the project and discusses a range of topics, including how space can be used as a pedagogic tool, determining the affordances of learning environments to engage students, how teacher collaboration can be enhanced in flexible spaces, and how furniture influences student engagement and teacher pedagogies. It also provides school leaders with authentic examples of how research can be utilised to drive evidence-based discussions about teacher practices and student learning. Finally, it also illustrates how teachers can design and implement powerful studies that underpin better pedagogies in their schools.
