Interesting Sarah! Maybe it is this stage that needs the most support -  lets take the ideas to SEDA – and see what emerges –  books are fine but someone /and a community to prompt share talk with and advise is usually also  more immediately supportive

Morning Everyone,

I have recently joined SEDA and the thread on EdD’s has been very interesting…..I didn’t think when I signed up that my inbox would be quite so inundated, but it has been very welcome just the same…!

I teach at University College Birmingham, but am doing my EdD at Warwick. I’ve completed all the taught modules which I found challenging, but like many others, enjoyed the company and encouragement of fellow students. Now I am onto the ‘thesis’ proper, and without any deadlines per se, my progress has definitely slowed. I thought the recent comment of telling others what you are planning to do was a very good idea……

Could we maybe have an ‘EdD’ drop in/networking  session at the SEDA conference in Spring as it seems there are so many experiences to share? I am hoping to get to the first day at least…

Anyway, my research area is Distributed Leadership in HE and its perceived impact on T & L. Alma Harris was one of my tutors at Warwick so inspired me in this area…if anyone has any comments, please do get in touch.

Best wishes
