Graphical representation of qualitative and quantitative data (Research Methods)
Microsoft Teams

This session will focus on graphical solutions for both qualitative and quantitative research. We aim to cover what visual solutions are appropriate for quantitative and qualitative data and introduce a range of visual aids for interpreting and presenting these data, such as pathway analysis graphs, Sankey diagrams, and discourse analysis graphs.

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.

Writing Literature Reviews (PhD in 2nd language series)
Microsoft Teams

Writing a literature review in a second language may feel intimidating at times, so come get some hints, tips, and ideas on how to create or improve your literature review. We’ll explore what it’s all about, what you need to cover and how to do it.

YouTube: Literature Review in a Second Language Series – 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.

The workshop will outline what is to be included in each section of the report. In doing so, it emphasis the writing up stage as a ‘strategic’ process of shaping a persuasive scientific argument. In order to derive full advantage from this workshop, participants should have access during the session to three research papers in their research field or discipline. The session involves critical analysis and small-group discussion. It will be of particular interest to students who are planning or writing a report or publication draft.
