This is a recorded presentation of Tara's From SoTL to SoS and Beyond for the College Development Network in Scotland.

Priscilla and Tara talk about how to use PD to build a sustainable career.

So much of academic life is separated. Atomized. This week, Priscilla and I talk about how we maintain the connection between teaching and research.

Tara and Professor Priscilla Dunk-West explore the specificity and power of a PhD in social work.

Tara and Professor Priscilla Dunk-West explore why there is both value and meaning in considering the enrolment into a PhD - now.

There is so much focus on supervisors and the candidature of a PhD. This focus reduces the understanding of the submission process and examination. Episode ten focuses on the crucial moment of a PhD. How, when and why it is examined.

For episode nine, Jamie and Tara focus on the writing and editing of a thesis. And the importance and value of quality writing to enable quality dissemination.

PhD projects - like research more generally - are filled with failure. Jamie and Tara talk about the importance of this failure and how it is a powerful moment in learning, development, transparency and accountability.
