The Only Way is Ethics Conference: Reflecting on and learning from research after ethical approval

The Only Way is Ethics: Reflecting on and learning from research after ethical approval This flagship ethics event is for the researcher community at York St John University!  It is being run in association with the Participatory Enquiry, Action Research and Democratic Methodologies Research Group and the Institute for Social Justice. The conference will take place on campus on Friday 22nd March from 10am - 3pm in the Creative Centre Auditorium, CC001 and Temple Foyer.  Ethics – after the form Often there is emphasis on “getting ethical approval” yet we rarely hear about what ethical issues were raised in research after approval.

UKAT Annual Conference 2022 (online)

UKAT Annual Conference 2022 (online)

Based on our collective recent experiences, the 2022 UKAT Annual Conference will explore how we might reimagine advising/tutoring so that it is more relevant to students, more effective at helping all students and institutions to achieve their intended outcomes, and more efficient in its operation. The conference will focus on five key themes: Digital technology - how can our experiences of the widescale adoption of digital technology and the pivot to online learning inform the future role of technology in advising and tutoring? Identity – how can advising and tutoring support student and cohort identity development? Community – how can advising and tutoring support learning communities, and build the sense of belonging that is important to student success? Equality, Diversity and Inclusion – what role does advising and tutoring have in enhancing equality and inclusion in higher education, and in enhancing success for all students?
