Hi Sarah,
Nice to hear more about you. I am currently co-writing a chapter on
Postmodern feminist research and if you like, I will send you a copy when it
is finished.
Good luck,
Kathleen Fahy

hi kathleen
i am half way through my masters program at Victoria uni at wellington. i
have only recently taken up post as a midwifery lecturer, so i feel my
masters research should be in the education field. i am especially
interested in the professional development of midwives, and have carried out
some work into professional portfolios.
i am also becoming increasingly interested in the internet and email, and
the role it plays in midwives' lives.
i am carrying out a special topic paper in the summer, looking broadly at
the internet, and hopefully, will be developing my own web site.
next year i am taking papers called midwifery knowledge and research
methodolgy. in the midwifery knowledge paper i hope to explore feminist
theory because i have to admit to only now becoming aware
of feminist issues (i can't believe i have been a midwife for xxx amount of
years; studied for 7 years; and only now becoming aware of the meaning of
feminism.)
to summarise, i have a wide spectrum of interests and want my research to
benefical to the midwifery profession. the other thing i wonder about is how
easy it would be for me to access clinical data now that i am working in the
polytech as opposed to the clinical area. i am also new to dunedin - i do
not have a network of contacts here as i have else where. this is why i find
mailing lists like this so wonderful - the networking that goes on is
invaluable.
so there you have it. what do you think?
