May 21, 2023 FreshEd #322 – The FreshEd Questionnaire, Vol. 5 (Research)
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: Please take this survey on podcasting in higher education: www.freshedpodcast.com/survey
--
Today we continue our mini-series called the FreshEd Questionnaire. I’ve been asking guests a set of standard questions after each interview.
These questions focus on how guests approach writing, reading, research, and supervision. I want to talk about them to highlight the many different approaches to the day-to-day activities we do inside universities.
Today’s episode focuses on research. I asked guests to describe how they approach research and to give one piece of advice to a new student in terms of conducting research.
Here’s what they had to say.
