An on-line repository of video resources for doctoral students

The “Video Resources for Doctoral Students” project has developed a databank of on-line resources to support postgraduate students who are preparing their research proposals or who are undertaking their doctoral research. The project consists of a website with nearly 200 short videos. The videos show interviews with academics and research students, as well as supervisory sessions. Topics include types of research, research methods, thesis writing, managing research studies, and the perspectives of an external examiner. The videos feature academics and students from HKIEd and from other tertiary institutions. This on-line database of resources is designed to facilitate innovative distance and blended learning pedagogies. In the seminar I will introduce the main features of the website.
