AVETRA | Holmesglen OctoberVET Workshop: Communicating your research

Communicating your research
Hosted by Henry Pook

Writing for Publication and Presenting at a Conference 
If you want to be published, having an interesting, original topic is only part of what is required: how you write is as important as what you write. But how do you ‘write for publication’? What are the skills required? What strategies can you use to get your work published?? What are some useful guidelines for success? 
  
Presenting at a conference.  
This workshop is aimed at those who have never presented at a conference or have done so only a limited number of times. Focussing on the basics of conference presentation, it discusses tips for selecting the right conference at which to present, the different types of conference presentations, how to formulate an Abstract and choose a title, how to formulate the actual presentation itself and, finally, how to deliver it.   

Where: Via Webex or Chadstone Campus, Holmesglen Institute, Library Building, Workshop Room 

• How do I develop a research proposal?
• What is the purpose of a literature review?
• Qualitative or quantitative: how do I chose?
• Writing for Publication: how do I prepare my research findings for publication?
• I want to present at a conference or forum: what do I need to know?

These and other questions are answered in a series of workshops offered by Holmesglen’s Centre for Applied Research and Innovation for its OctoberVET offering.

In 2024 Holmesglen Institute is offering a novel approach to OctoberVET. Scheduled over four weeks, we are offering a range of workshops on practical issues related to applied research: developing research proposals; surveying the literature; choosing a methodology and methods and communicating your research.

They are intended to for all researchers in VET who are either currently engaged in applied research or innovation or who are thinking about doing research for the first time.
