1) The document discusses a study on the experiences of part-time doctoral students in developing as writers.
2) It analyzes interviews with 6 part-time EdD students who discussed the temporal and spatial aspects of their writing experiences over time.
3) Preliminary findings highlighted challenges with balancing writing time between work, family, and personal life, as well as emotional reactions like anxiety and loss from dedicating time to writing.
This experiential workshop considers dramatic techniques and games to help students to enjoy literature, to understand more and to develop competent literacy skills. The aim is to offer teachers the tools to lift the text off the page so that it becomes "live" for the students in a meaningful fashion. The kinaesthetic approach, collaborative group work, thematic studies, presentation techniques and interactive learning and teaching will be modelled. By the end of the session the participants should have new ways of approaching literature classes and a number of adaptable practical techniques for classroom use whatever the material or age of the students. The teachers should be able to make literature live for their students.
This presentation examines the necessity of encouraging writing across the curriculum areas. Writing activities have to be engaging, meaningful and help to develop the writing skills of the audience. These slides examine how and why one should teach writing across the curriculum.
Biographic narrative: a taster workshopdebbieholley1
Participants are warmly invited to take part in a practice interview, work on coding a short extract from a 'real' interview and carry out a sample analysis. BNIM draws upon the German school of thought from the early 20th century, and is a particular method used to draw out the 'stories' or narratives from interviewee's lives. What is of interest to the researcher is what the interviewee selects to tell us, and the way in which the story is told. The interview is structured such that the interviewee has the time and space to develop their own contribution. This approach is useful as it can in part challenge the criticism of the research interview, which can assume that an interview is an unproblematic window on psychological or social realities, and that the 'information' that the interviewee gives about themselves and their world can be simply extracted and quoted (Wengraf 2001).
Language learners in Japanese secondary and tertiary educational contexts are often cycled through course and classroom regimes emphasizing accuracy and precision, but often with constraints that prevent fluency to develop, and no contexts for fluency to expand as is. This presentation explores the capability of latent learner creativity in areas such as art, music, and L1 written capacity as sources that learners could draw from to reappraise, individualize, and explore assignments in two key L2 output tasks - presentation and written composition - that could enable greater heartfelt engagement with such assignments and expand output beyond where learners may previously have achieved. When creativity in such assignments can be channeled though contextualization such as web-based presentation display upload and compositional publication, learners may be capable of some extraordinary breakthroughs in language capacity as well as greater motivation and orientation to language learning.
The Challenge to Write –Dangerous and Disruptive Words Janice K. Jones
PLACE Seminar: Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge 2014.
This seminar engages with emerging debates around the value and danger of writing as a creative experience, and what forms of writing are valued and supported within 21st century teaching and research. Janice brings together examples of the creative works and reflections written by pre-service teachers as novice authors over a three year period, and reflections on the experience of researchers as writers using qualitative methods in a climate of neo-positivism. She suggests that writing that is audacious, troubling and creative supports powerful thinking and has the power to disrupt our personal and professional habitus as artists, educators, and researchers.

Program Strategies for Early Learners: Location: Pavilion F Three Museums, Th...West Muse
Join an interdisciplinary panel of museums and dive into a session devoted to early learners and strategies to work with these youngest visitors (and their families) in a variety of settings and subjects. Each institution will share successes in their content area, and participants will walk away with a set of new strategies and tools to use with their own early learners.
Guided Inquiry is one of the keys to establishing the elusive collaboration that teacher librarians have been seeking for many years now. This presentation will essentially be an analysis of the learnings of a team of teachers and teacher librarians about Guided Inquiry as two inquiry units are planned, carried out and evaluated during 2011, with the aim of identifying what works and what doesn’t, and the organising principles behind Guided Inquiry, from the practitioners’ perspectives.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Temporalities of Writing Experiences of
Part-Time Doctoral Students
Dr Joan Woodhouse (Univ Leicester)
Accelerated Academy, Prague 24-25
2. • Part-time doctorates (PhD and EdD) very important in
Education departments
• What are the challenges and opportunities in their
development as writers?
• Focus on the experiences and development of part-time
doctoral students as writers
Focus
3. David (EdD) Teacher educator, leader of secondary PGCE. 6
month sabbatical to finish thesis
Paul (EdD) FE lecturer and engineering programme leader
Simon (EdD) Headteacher international school, resigned to finish
thesis
Claire (EdD) FE PGCE tutor, moved to HE as a learning
developer
Joyce (EdD) Teacher educator. 6 month sabbatical to finish
thesis
Sarah (PhD) Started full-time, went part-time teaching and then
to urban transport planning
Participants
4. • Unstructured, narrative interviews using stimulated recall
• Graphs and sketching
• Attempt to understand the spatial and temporal aspects of
experience and development
• Interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA)
• Initial analysis has highlighted four areas of interest
• Experience over time
• Spatial aspects of writing
• Emerging rhythms which enable writing
• Emotional/affective perspectives
Approach
5. • Starting points of narrative
vary – from primary level to
masters/professional
• Cycles of improvement and
regression but idiosyncratic
• Writing for ‘others’
• Feelings of anxiety and
performativity
• Affirmation of work when
assessed, helping to improve
confidence
Experience overtime
7. Emerging rhythms which enable
writing
• Writing as weekend activity
• The week is set-up, and can be
spatially flexible, but not
productive for writing
• Use of rituals entering into
writing time (temporal liminality)
• Shift from polyrhythmic to
monorhythmic – experience of
‘flow’
• Preferred writing time 1-3 days

9. Initial Insights
•Participants experience a complex set
of patterns of writing development over
time
•Strong rhythms in writing approaches
– but often feelings of ‘emptiness’. A
performative process rather than one to
enjoy
•Strong emotive reactions to writing
and time – feeling of loss, of difficult
decisions
•Ethics of care?
•Pedagogic considerations
•Opening up the importance of ethics
and time
