Helen Donaghue; Gill Adams – Studies in Continuing Education, 2025
It is widely recognised that an important aspect of doctoral study is the development of a researcher identity. However, little is known about how to support this. Although previous research has highlighted the importance of discursive engagement for researcher identity development, no studies examine talk or discuss how identities are constructed…

Faber, Courtney J.; Kajfez, Rachel L.; Lee, Dennis M.; Benson, Lisa C.; Kennedy, Marian S.; Creamer, Elizabeth G. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2022
Undergraduate research experiences (UREs) in science and engineering offer a number of positive outcomes to the students who are able to participate, including increased retention, clarified career goals, and development of problem-solving skills. There have been a number of calls for research that investigates the experiences, identity, and…

McCulloch, Alistair – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2022
When Louis Pasteur remarked that chance favours the prepared mind, he was commenting on the important role played by serendipity in scientific discovery. That role is well known (most know of the story of Fleming's accidental discovery of penicillin) but much of the literature focuses on the STEM disciplines, on 'big' science, and concentrates on…

Carpenter, Lauren; Nguyen, Bindi; Davis, Laura; Rowland, Susan – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
The employability of science graduates if of key concern. Employers report that STEM graduates lack appropriate employability skills and work experience, and science graduates take longer to find full-time work than graduates from many other programs. Undergraduate research experience (URE) is an important pedagogy that involves student immersion…

Hickey, Andrew; Forbes, Melissa – Studies in Higher Education, 2022
This paper examines the function of 'expertise' in mediating the student-supervisor relationship in Higher Degree Research (HDR). Prevailing conceptualisations of expertise generally translate as "disciplinary acumen" and reference the supervisor's specialist disciplinary and methodological knowledge. Beyond establishing the disciplinary…

Mishra, Chandrani; Parker, Loran Carleton; Clase, Kari L. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2022
The development and implementation of varied assessment practices is a major focus in higher education. Assessment benefits both students and teachers; it informs teachers about students' learning and misconceptions, thereby helping teachers improve teaching practices and students assess their current state of understanding. In general, the field…

Hosseini, Hossein; Gurney, Laura – Waikato Journal of Education, 2022
The final observable product of a successful doctoral programme is typically a thesis that has been critically examined by senior academics and considered to demonstrate a significant contribution to knowledge. However, it is a conviction underpinning this special issue that the doctorate should be acknowledged, explored and understood as a…

Hodgson, Sonja; Buchanan, Laurie; Hogan, Kelly; Sathy, Viji; Hutson, Bryant – Intersection: A Journal at the Intersection of Assessment and Learning, 2022
Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) have the potential to lower barriers to participation in research for a wide range of undergraduate students. In this study, we examined written reflections of first-generation college students who participated in CUREs to understand the challenges and benefits that these courses offered them.
