Navigating Speaking & Listening Difficulties (PhD in 2nd Language series)
Microsoft Teams

This session provides an opportunity to share the current difficulties that you are facing in academic English, in face to face (online or offline) interactions, and explore ways forward for improving understanding, on both sides. We will challenge some preconceived ideas about ‘standard’ academic English and develop strategies for better framing our future interactions so that we can get the help that we need to improve and support one another.

YouTube: Speaking and hearing difficulties PhD in a second language – YouTube

A PhD is challenging. Doing it in another language makes it more so. The ‘PhD in a second language’ series is designed to support you with many aspects of the process. We cover writing and speaking; reading and presenting. We discuss how we network and create connections. We also discuss the vagaries of undertaking research in the UK; the words that mean something entirely different and trip us up every time. The sessions are run by a Warwick PhD alumni and lecturer who still occasionally struggles to find the correct English word.

This workshop aims to provide you with an overview of a range of methodological and analytical skills, which you can apply in different research contexts.

YouTube: Quantitative Research Methods Data Collection and Analysis – YouTube

Research Methods Series: A standalone series, but also to support our understanding of research integrity & ethics; the research methods series will give overviews of qualitative and quantitative or mixed methods; why some researchers will adopt certain methods; and why some approaches are more suitable than others. The sessions will provide general ideas; signposts to follow up on specific areas; the positives and negatives of different approaches. You will need to speak to your department for full research methodology training in your chosen practice.

You can attend the whole series or just pick the ones of specific interest.
