Universities make concerted choices about the content they put on their websites - it is their face to the world 🌍 In our new paper led by @katrinamcchesney.bsky.social, we looked to see how parents are positioned in institutional websites in Australia and New Zealand. doi.org/10.1007/s107...

Wooo! Fab publication by fab team of authors! If you don’t think you deal with distance PhD researchers, think again. #AcademicSky

Excited to share a #callforabstracts for our next special issue: "Racialized Legitimacy in Graduate Education and Postdoctoral Training", with guest editors @airealejoi.bsky.social, @julieposselt.bsky.social, @romanliera.bsky.social & Lauren Irwin www.emeraldgrouppublishing.com/calls-for-pa...

Racialized Legitimacy in Graduate Education and Postdoctoral Training

This special issue emphasizes how racism and racialization are embedded in the processes used to evaluate and confer legitimacy to graduate students and postdoctoral scholars.

In line with January decluttering / NY resolutions / general desire to have work-y things be healthier and more focused this year - farewell at last to my X/Twitter account. Happy to be here on BlueSky and also enjoying the increasing academic activity on LinkedIn (www.linkedin.com/in/katrinamc...)

Thanks @tseenster.bsky.social - we're pleased to share our #DistanceDoctorates work with the #Bluesky community ... check it out! We've also got a Facebook group where distance (incl hybrid, temporary, 'informal'/'subterranean' distance students!) can connect: www.facebook.com/groups/49932...

Just realised that #DistanceDoctorates needs establishing. It's a tag for the "Doing doctoral research at a distance" project that I did with @katrinamcchesney.bsky.social @jamesburford.bsky.social and Liezel Frick. Website: doctoralresearchbydistance.wordpress.com #AcademicSky #PhDsky

Horrible news today that the govt is unilaterally directing the disbanding of humanities and social science panels from one of the most important research funds in New Zealand. A short but on point response from Universities NZ. www.universitiesnz.ac.nz/latest-news-...

Blue sky for #bluesky ... A joy to be with colleagues from @waikatouniversity.bsky.social on a writing retreat in such a beautiful spot. Loving the sound of the waves and the stunning outlook while we support each other as writers and scholars. #pāpāmoabeach #mountnz #itcouldbeworse

Great to be at the #NZARE2024 NZ Assn for Research in Education conference at @waikatouniversity.bsky.social this week. Yesterday I presented on how demographic/identity factors affect people's experiences of academic peer review (collaborative work with Kay Hammond & Julie Trafford of AUT).

We used the Mana model (by Melinda Webber and Angus Macfarlane) to frame a strengths-based look at what supported success for these Māori learners. Students particularly emphasised mana ūkaipō (sense of place), mana tū (sense of resilience), and mana whānau (sense of family).

Tips for staying sane during academic writing! Particularly relevant during a PhD! #academicsky @academic-chatter.bsky.social

Doing or supervising a PhD or EdD at a distance? Here's a link to my just-published review of 'Doing doctoral research at a distance: flourishing in off-campus, hybrid, and remote pathways' by Katrina McChesney, James Burford, Liezel Frick and Tseen Khoo. www.tandfonline.com/eprint/KMTMN...

I found this super helpful for getting my head round this new space! Thanks @nedpotter.bsky.social 💐

In my continued quest to help gently usher as much of the academic community towards this platform as possible, I've written the below for the @lseimpactblog.bsky.social. If you read it and have other advice you'd add, do leave it as a comment on the blog!

I can has arrived 🎉 Thanks @tseenster.bsky.social for the nudge!
