The BSA Youth Study Group invites research students and early career researchers with a primary interest in any element of youth studies to attend a research development workshop. The purpose of the day is to provide a platform for youth studies researchers to present their work in a supportive, constructive and intellectually stimulating environment. Researchers with work at any stage of the research process are welcome to present their ideas, findings or concerns of navigating the field. Whether planning to present at the BSA annual conference (or any conference or seminar for that matter!), refining ideas and questions through the literature review, or preparing to seek out avenues to disseminate results, a collaborative feedback process will be used to help delegates develop their research in a range of different ways. The process will be supported by advice and guidance offered by Shane Blackman (Reader in Cultural Studies, Canterbury Christchurch University) and Rachel Brooks (Professor of Education, Brunel University). Both have considerable expertise in the field of youth studies and significant experience in research, publishing, presenting and supervising PhD students to successful outcomes. The day will also provide a useful networking opportunity to meet other people researching in a similar field. With this in mind, delegates not wishing to present but who would like to take part in an observational capacity or share and discuss their ideas more informally are very much encouraged to attend. Places are limited, but every effort will be made to include as many presenters as we can. If you are interested in presenting your work at this event, please email a very brief outline of your research (maximum 200 words) and an indication of the primary issues you would like to develop (presentation skills/ content, refining questions, dissemination etc) to the email address below before 21st January 2011. This will enable us to cluster or stream the presentations effectively. Similarly, if you wish to attend without presenting or have any other questions about attending the event please feel free to email. Hope to see many of you in February.
