Journal Club (Cohort 2 – November)

You must be a current student in cohort 2 to attend this event.

For each Journal Club students are assigned a paper to read before the online session.

When reading the paper students are encouraged to think about:

• What was the most interesting aspect of the paper to you?
• What are the most important findings and why?
• What are the strengths and weaknesses of the study?
• What are the implications for Sustainable Sound Futures?
• Are there implications for your PhD?
• What research gaps remain and which would you priortise if you were the author?
• How was the work presented in text, tables and images, and how could it have been improved?
• Are all the conclusions drawn from the data analysis, or is some of it more speculative?
• What questions would you like to ask the expert?

This is a safe space to ask questions and improve your understanding of the field. It is fine to ask simple questions.

Everyone should come to the session with a few questions they’d like to ask the expert.

Expert Guest: Dr Helen Whitehead, Lecturer in Environment and Sustainability at the University of Salford
