Are you struggling with advanced quantitative analysis? In that case, this workshop will remind you of regression, Anova and Manova, and how to apply these statistical tools to your PhD projects appropriately. The distinctions between ANOVA, ANCOVA, MANOVA, and MANCOVA can be challenging. Before one can appreciate the differences, it is helpful to review their similarities, as well as dissimilarities.

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.

Coaching has been defined in many ways. The essence of coaching is:

• To help a person change in the way they wish and helping them go in the direction they want to go.

• Coaching supports a person at every level in becoming who they want to be.

• Coaching builds awareness empowers choice and leads to change.

It unlocks a person’s potential to maximise their performance. Coaching helps them to learn rather than teaching them.

You will leave with an initial action plan to get those Next Steps underway.

his session provides a review of some of the key principles for achieving clarity and concision in STEM-related writing. We will jointly work through some examples where clarity needs to be improved. The session then considers the concept of ‘readability’ and its importance for academic writing. Finally, there will be an opportunity to engage in writing practice, individually and in small groups. The session will be particularly useful for those who are beginning their research projects, or who are at an early stage of writing up.
