Presenting Questions
The
groups come one by one to the centre to present their
questions:
-
There
are more concerns than questions. How available would be
the contact for research? Would supervisor help us to get
in touch with the field? What kind of feedbacks are we
going to have on the drafts?
-
How many
times can we change the dissertation topic? Statistical
analysis, who is going to be available to help us on this?
The 2 copies for Feb, what does really entail? Any ideas
for grants for research? Availability for June?
-
This is
a bit similar… How do we decide supervisor? How to get
data? Where from? How do we deal with the situation if we
don’t have the supervisor we wish? How to know which
references are good once? How to get an extension of
deadline?
-
We have
3 broad questions: How to narrow down a general theme that
I’m interested in? What do you want? Want us to show that
we can do research? But what is the place for expression
and exploration?
-
Do we
have to go to a supervisor knowing what we want to do? Is
there funding available? How to approach organisations? Why
are there so few supervisors interested in organisational
questions? How to make decisions in terms of methodology?
-
What to
expect from the relationship with the supervisor? How to
know that the supervisor is willing to work on the topic?
Availability during summer?
