Enhancing the Doctoral Experience: A Guide for Supervisors and their International Students

One of the major intangible benefits associated with the postgraduate research experience is precisely that: the experience. And more specifically, for an increasing number of international research students: the British doctoral experience. This experience is often largely defined and shaped by their relationship with, and support from, their supervisor. Enhancing the Doctoral Experience brings together the authors’ experience and research, frameworks and models as well as pragmatic feedback and understanding. This synthesis of scholarly theory and pragmatic sampling has produced a book that provides a scaffold for students and supervisors to have conversations about their expectations; to discuss what supervision is; to articulate clearly what both parties need in order for a successful relationship to occur, and to build a mutually beneficial endeavour. In many cases, these conversations can be complicated by cultural and linguistic differences so the text explicitly addresses these and other sources of misunderstanding. Against a challenging background of growing numbers of students but also increasing pressures on time and costs, Enhancing the Doctoral Experience offers an approach to improve the effectiveness of the doctoral student and increase the professionalization of research supervision. It does so by providing both with an awareness of, and a toolkit to approach, student diversity.

Entwicklungspädagogische Theorien, Konzepte und Methoden 2: Jugendliche und Jugend

Die soziale und politische Demokratie ist in Deutschland sowie anderen Ländern Mittel- und Nordeuropas in einer tiefen Krise. Die „soziale Frage“ wird zunehmend von rechtspopulistischen Bewegungen und Organisationen thematisiert und politisch instrumentalisiert. Dieses Buch jugendpädagogische Buch nimmt die epochalen Herausforderungen an. Es begründetet zunächst ausführlich das Konzept der milieugerechten und habitussensiblen Pädagogik und entfaltet es dann systematisch in Bezug auf die Schule, die Identitätsentwicklung, die Möglichkeiten emanzipatorischer Sinnlichkeit und die moralischen Grundlagen demokratischer Sittlichkeit. Dabei leistet es mit dem Theorem der pädagogischen Kapitalbildung auch einen Beitrag zur empirisch gehaltvollen Analyse der Widerspruchsrelationen von Bildung und Herrschaft.

Environmental and Sustainability Education in Teacher Education: Canadian Perspectives (International Explorations in Outdoor and Environmental Education)

This book was inspired by the inaugural National Roundtable on Environmental and Sustainability Education in Canadian Faculties of Education (Roundtable 2016), which took place June 14-16, 2016, at Trent University in Peterborough, Ontario. Roundtable 2016 brought together over seventy participants from across Canada, including educators, researchers, policy-makers, consultants, and community organizations. Over the course of three days, participants took part in keynote addresses, research colloquia, networking socials, and collaborative inquiry activities focused on Environmental Sustainability Education in Teacher Education (ESE-TE). Roundtable 2016 resulted in the publication of a National Action Plan containing action-oriented recommendations for enhancing ESE-TE, and a position statement titled “The Otonabee Declaration,” where delegates articulated their views regarding environmental degradation, the critical need for enhancing ESE-TE, and, the role educators, children, youth, educational institutions, policy makers, and Indigenous communities play in enhancing ESE-TE in Canada. This volume concludes with a discussion placing current Canadian ESE-TE theory and practice within an international context.
