PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP # 5
The Faculty of Languages- International Cultures is honoured to welcome all interested participants back to Professional Development Workshop # 5, scheduled on Thursday, 16 March, 2023, 9:00 am- 12 pm, Room 407, Nguyễn Văn Tráng Campus.
This special workshop is a chance for participants to welcome, listen to and interact with the two distinguished guest speakers from Australia, Dr Trì Hoàng Đăng and Dr Susan Germein.
Dr Trì Hoàng Đăng will lead the first section (9:00 am- 11:00 am) with a DEEP analysis of the two important but challenging parts in research paper writing: The INTRODUCTION and DISCUSSION. The discussion here centres around concerns as well as common ‘traps’ novice researchers and postgraduate students often fall prey to while writing these sections. The ‘practical’ part of the section lies in the use of REAL articles and thesis papers to illustrate and support the analysis.
Dr Susan Germein will attend the workshop via Google Meet with a reflection on her ‘journey of an unconventional thesis’ in the context of DIFFERENT CULTURE. For those of us who are new to, or curious about ETHNOGRAPHY, this is the chance to get to know what it is like taking a POST-QUALITATIVE approach to the research process, the ethical issues and other important decisions an ethnography researcher, including Dr Susan Germein may have to make along the ‘journey’.
