Hello all
I’m writing to let you know about a Realist Summer School that I and a couple of colleagues will be running for a week in Saskatchewan, Canada, from 13-17 June 2016. Each day will include an advanced skills workshop in the morning with topics selected in response to a needs analysis of participants, and working sessions in the afternoons. Working sessions will provide participants with opportunities to work on their own projects with support from facilitators; opportunities to workshop specific issues or difficulties with other participants; and opportunities to present aspects of work in progress and receive feedback from others. Projects can be of any type – realist evaluation, realist reviews, research funding applications, or other realist research projects – and at any stage of development, from conception through design to data collection, analysis or write-up. The summer school will provide a real opportunity to consolidate knowledge, develop expertise, strengthen teams and build a network of realist practitioners.
Fees are (Canadian $) $250 for students, $500 for University of Saskatchewan staff and $1000 for others. Teams are encouraged to attend together or send multiple members. Team discounts are available at the rate of 10% for teams of three to five members and 25% for teams of six or more members.
