Active reading for graduate students
This document provides guidance on active reading strategies for graduate students. It explains that active reading involves having a framework to make connections to existing knowledge and answering predetermined questions, rather than passive reading of just going wherever the author leads. The strategies suggested include pre-reading to understand the structure, then doing an initial read of intro/conclusion, a middle read of key chapters to grasp the overall argument, and a final close read for details. Taking notes and marking a text are recommended for difficult material. Active reading prepares graduate students to deeply understand and analyze what they are reading.
Topics thesis statements
This document provides guidance on developing a thesis statement or research question for a writing assignment. It explains that instructors may provide topics or allow students to choose their own. For instructor-provided topics, it is important to stay within the requirements. Good topics are researchable and of interest to the student. Developing a working thesis or research question helps narrow a broad topic. Questions can be factual, seeking known information, or more complex, requiring in-depth research. A thesis statement takes a position while a research question asks an open-ended question. The document provides examples and guidelines for developing strong thesis statements and research questions.
Brainstorming

On Research and Writing Research Papers
A firm grasp of scientific method and ability to write clearly and convincingly is a great assert to any professional in sciences.
Conducting research and publishing peer reviewed papers train professionals in both scientific method and writing. Moreover, having research papers in your resume is considered a huge plus in both industry and academia. However, conducting research and getting them published requires professionals to approach the problem and present their solutions form a unique angle. The talk will address research in general and writing research papers. Specifically, the talk will cover peer review process, what is a contribution?, and basic composition of
a research paper, describing potential pitfalls.
Pre writing strategies
Prewriting is the first step in the traditional writing process and involves activities done before the first draft to generate and organize ideas. Some common prewriting techniques include listing, free writing, clustering, and cubing. Listing involves jotting down every idea about the topic without censoring. Free writing has the writer continuously write about the subject for 10-15 minutes without worrying about mechanics. Clustering maps out ideas that relate to the central topic through drawings of lines and circles. Cubing looks at a topic from six angles: describing, comparing, associating, analyzing, applying, and arguing. Prewriting helps writers explore different perspectives on their topic before beginning the first draft.
How to research
This document provides guidance on how to conduct research and write a research paper. It discusses choosing a research topic from an area of interest and doing background research to ensure the topic has not already been extensively studied. The document outlines the structure of a research paper, including an introduction, methodology, results, discussion, and conclusion sections. It also provides tips for writing each section, adding references, and formatting the paper in Microsoft Word. Key aspects covered include choosing a specific, creative topic; conducting background research; and structuring the paper with an introduction that includes the research question and thesis, a body with results and arguments, and a conclusion that summarizes key points and significance.

Great White Hope or White Elephant? discusses the history and evolution of physical education teaching models from drill-based practices to sport techniques to models-based practice. It analyzes 45 peer-reviewed papers on the benefits and challenges of models-based practice, finding that it requires significant effort from teachers but can improve student learning outcomes and teacher effectiveness while diversifying the teacher's role. However, models-based practice also impacts teacher identity and workload.
Developing a Pedagogy of Technology in Physical Education
The document discusses the need for a pedagogy of technology in physical education. It argues that technology is often introduced into education without fully considering pedagogical principles and how the technology can best support teaching and learning. Educators need to focus first on what they want to achieve pedagogically before introducing new technologies. The document examines different definitions of pedagogy and reviews literature showing that technology has been underutilized in physical education classrooms. It advocates developing an understanding of pedagogical dimensions for effective technological integration, including technical knowledge, awareness of opportunities and limitations, and applying a pedagogy of technology.

Children have lost independence and freedom to explore their neighborhoods without adult supervision due to increased car dominance in cities. This has negative impacts like increased traffic, pollution, and accident risks. Some European cities have implemented traffic calming initiatives to reduce traffic volumes and speeds, giving streets back to children and residents in a safer way. Modifying cities to enhance children's freedom would benefit all city residents by creating more sustainable, sociable, and livable places.

How To Write An Introduction
The document provides guidance on how to write an effective introduction for an essay. It explains that an introduction should indicate the topic, describe the structure of the essay, and state the thesis. The document compares two sample introductions, noting how the second introduction is more effective because it does not use phrases like "the topic of this essay" and expresses the writer's position confidently rather than timidly. Frequently asked questions about introductions are also addressed.

Models-Based Practice: Problematising the M and the P.

This AIESEP presentation begins to consider these (and other) points.
