PRE-CONGRESS PhD DAY

  Tuesday 27 August 2024

Pre-congress PhD Day

A one day research workshop

PhD Day is a traditional pre-congress research workshop where PhD students have the opportunity to present and discuss their research. The main objective is to support the research capacity building in the incoming generation of cultural-historical and activity research. Also, this is a unique opportunity for PhD researchers to join the ISCAR community, and start building their own research networks and communities.

In the PhD Students’ Day, special attention will be given to the PhD thesis, focusing on the different phases of doctoral research. There will be spaces/times for dialogues, presentations, posters, and debates, including the participation of Senior Researchers that will discuss parts of PhD students’ work and provide some suggestions. For instance, the opportunity to discuss theoretical framework, research design, methodology and data analysis will be given to doctoral students who have already collected their empirical data.

All accepted papers will be grouped in coordinated paper sections, and assigned to a discussant chair committee.
Each section is scheduled for 1.5 hours led by two internationally recognized professors. Three paper presentations will be grouped (20 minutes for each presentation) followed by 30 minutes of general discussion. Other PhD students and early career researchers are invited to participate in the discussion.

The Organising Committee might suggest PhD students turn a poster into a dialogue paper or vice versa. The PhD students will receive a letter of acceptance.
