Education doctoral programs in South Africa focus on inducting students into the scholarship of research. Opportunities for engaging doctoral students in work-integrated learning (WIL) to develop their scholarship of teaching are scarce for aspiring teacher educators. In response to the absence of induction programs for doctoral candidates how one…

This article presents a cooperative inquiry into the lived experience of pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree with publications or creative works. Drawing on the insights of five online PhD students and their two supervisors in an Australian online program, the research objective is to present perspectives contemporaneous with the online…

This study explored the effectiveness of a multimodal instructional module for teaching Occupational Adaptation (OA) theory. Implemented across three entry-level occupational therapy doctoral (OTD) programs, faculty designed and implemented asynchronous preparatory lectures, a face-to-face experiential lab, and guided discussions of the learning…

Despite consistent growth in computing-related fields, challenges persist in advancing racial equity--especially within doctoral programs. Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs) increasingly offer graduate programs. Yet, MSIs are often overlooked in graduate student pathways to computing degrees and careers. Leveraging multiple methodological…

Doctoral education is the primary time in which scholars learn about research methodologies and begin to develop their own research agendas and skills. Yet, to date, few research studies have examined graduate students' perceived value of, and access to, training in multiple research methodologies. The purpose of this study was to explore special…

The world faces complex and entangled environmental, health and social problems that can only be effectively grappled with if the research sector harnesses the knowledges and understandings of diverse cultures. Research education is a key site where more democratic and equitable processes of knowledge creation can take place. Drawing on de Sousa…

Several authors have described how the formalization of recent decades has steered doctoral education towards structured curricula, more managerial control and new models for supervision. Largely absent from these accounts, however, is if and how doctoral education has been affected by the concurrent changes in research governance, in particular…

This study aims to better understand the learning experiences of doctoral examiners in relation to their assessment practices in the PhD viva, which directly impacts the PhD candidates' success in doctoral assessment. A narrative approach was employed to uncover the narratives of learning to examine in the PhD viva from twelve doctoral examiners…

In this article, I connect self-efficacy and social constructivism and how this shaped me as a researcher and academic, as well as how connections to my advisor, Dr. Terry Wood, gave me the self-efficacy to persevere during the personal and scholarly challenges of my doctoral program. I discuss, using Bandura's social cognitive sources of…

Context: Previous research has found simulation with debriefing to be helpful in developing self-confidence, improving clinical competence, identifying knowledge deficits, and implementing knowledge into practice in the short term. However, the long-term implications of simulation curation and participation are unknown. Objective: The purpose of…

The global academic community is increasingly connected, which has implications for the internationalization of doctoral education. In our previous work, we presented a theoretical approach to doctoral student research training using an ecological theory that provided considerations for individual and programmatic practice. Though our proposed…

This paper aims to investigate the reasons some female mathematicians give to justify their choice to not work in academia after finishing their doctoral studies. Nine female mathematicians who finished a PhD in Sweden answered a written questionnaire. Through collective narrative analysis, two main tracks were identified. One narrative described…

The teaching of anatomy is relevant to many fields and anatomy teachers are in demand. Individuals with a graduate anatomy education are some of the most sought-after candidates to fill open teaching positions, but it is unclear as to what constitutes a graduate anatomy education. The purpose of this study was to investigate the components of a…

This paper performs a critical qualitative inquiry exploring supervision pedagogies utilising duoethnography as both methodology and conceptual framing. We begin the inquiry by reflecting upon our social and cultural identities and our evolving supervisor/supervisee-colleague-friend relationship. Our critical dialogue then shifts to scrutinising…

Discussions about the status of scholarly journals in management have tended to revolve around impact factor and standing on relevant lists-cues whose validity has been oft-debated. We introduce a new metric for gauging the status of scholarly journals. Syllabus share represents the proportion of doctoral seminar syllabi comprised of articles from…
