<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This one-day, intensive workshop has been
developed around the postgraduate student - and supervisor -
journey. The morning looks at the beginning of the supervision
process: initial conceptions and expectations around
supervision, roles and responsibilities of both supervisor and
student, and the 'Rough Guide' to the rules & regulations
of supervisory practice. In the afternoon we will first
consider the middle part of the journey by looking in detail
at a number of case studies of supervision drawn from
real-life examples, and then move to the end point of the
journey by considering examination of the thesis and preparing
the student for viva. We end by drawing together ideas,
examples from practice, resources etc. into a 'toolkit' for
good practice in postgraduate supervision.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The workshop will be interactive with
plenty of opportunities for discussion, debate, and reflection
on practice. We find that often, academics don't get the
chance to meet and share experiences as 'supervisors' and that
events such as these provide a very useful space in which to
be able to achieve this and to update on the latest practice
and ideas.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">About the presenters, Lesley McLellan
& Lorraine Walsh (University of Dundee): prior to her
current role as Director of Quality Assurance at Dundee,
Lesley was a senior academic working in the School of Medicine
at the University of Dundee, with the role of College Head of
Learning & Teaching. Lorraine is a historian by training
who moved into Education and is now Head of Educational
Development and eLearning at Dundee. Both have extensive
experience of supervision at Doctoral level and are currently
involved in rolling out a programme of development
opportunities in postgraduate supervision at Dundee in
addition to external consultancy work in this area.<o:p></o:p></p>
