This WELS PGR Blog is written for and by PostGraduate Researchers at the Open University and interested others. It has been developed to provide a space for emerging doctoral researchers to develop ideas, ponder the nature of PGR research, promote their work and inspire others. The WELS faculty – Wellbeing, Education and Language Studies offers both a PhD and Professional Doctorates in Education (EdD) and Health and Social care (DHSC).
We aim to generate scholarly conversations and you are invited to comment on any of the posts.
If you are a PostGraduate Researcher associated with the Open University, you are invited to get involved – write a blog posts, encourage others to write a post or join the editorial team.
Guidelines for writers:
Suggested blog posts should be no more than 750 words with an image and hyperlinked references. We like to include a picture of the author with a short bio. Contributors are advised to remember that not all readers will be specialists in their field and so as much as possible, avoid language that only a specialist would understand.
We also have a suggested format for each post:
- an image,
- one problem,
- two solutions
- and a question,
But this format is suggestive rather than restrictive. As long as each post follows the guidelines the format can take any preferred shape.
