Welcome to this first core training session for higher degree supervisors at Flinders University.

Tara introduces the Core Higher Degree Supervisory programme at Flinders University

Narelle, Jamie and Tara talk about multiliteracy and its relationship to disciplinary literacy. How can diversity be enabled - in curricula design and beyond - through multiliteracy?

Well, the project has progressed. Narelle, Jamie and Tara start to sharpen the field and literature of literacy feeding into her disciplinary literacy research. And yes - a breakthrough.

Tara Brabazon and Jamie Quinton unpick a flippant comment made by a senior Australian academic. She dismissed the relationship between undergraduate teaching and learning and PhD supervision.

But is there a relationship? Should there be a relationship? How is this relationship rendered meaningful?

The right woman. The right time. The right project. Every now and again, a remarkable researcher transforms a field. Listen to Narelle Hunter explore how disciplinary literacy can transform the teaching, learning and researching of science.

Tara talks with completed PhD students and scholars just at the cusp of submission. How do you finish? How does the PhD end? A powerful moment in understanding the endings.

The PhD examination is a dark art. But how are they examined? What does examination mean in the PhD space? This podcast between Natalie Hills and Tara Brabazon - and the remarkable students at Flinders University - enters this complex and mysterious doctoral space.

This podcast matters. So much goes wrong in the PhD candidature. Let's tell those stories. And let's explore how to improve the life and research of these students.

Tara conducts an end-of-seminar discussion with PhD students about their aspirations and hopes for a PhD supervisor. Evocative. Provocative. Convincing.
