Here are some of the best articles from the past year. 5 steps to take after your doctorate After the years of hard slog, surely the time after getting your doctorate is a time to relax and celebrate. But the period after successfully defending a PhD can be disorientating, especially if you don't (yet!) have a job in hand. It may be tempting to think that you never want to look at your thesis again after having spent so long on it. Take some time off, of course, but don't ignore what can be a very valuable resource for your future, whatever direction you decide to go in. Here are a few tips to help you through this time of limbo. Why the west is queuing up to work with China While Asian countries have generally out-performed their western counterparts at high school level for some time, the Asian university system has struggled to maintain the same level of international prominence as its American and British counterparts. Indeed, until relatively recently, pursuing study or an academic career in China or other Asian countries has not received much attention. Nevertheless, with the growth of the Asian education market, and the struggles faced by the British higher education system, there are many reasons why more universities are now turning towards China as a potential international collaborator. The TEF – What you need to know The TEF is focused on undergraduate teaching only and was launched in 2016 as a trial. Results were released in June 2017, and much debate surrounds the efficacy and value of the scheme. Although results are differentiated (taking typical cohort into account), there were some surprises, some disgruntled participants and a predictable media rumpus. This article tells you everything you need to know about TEF and how to prepare for the next assessment. Training undergraduates to be ethical researchers It might be argued that a lecturer's job is to defamiliarise the routine aspects of intellectual life, in order to produce critical and analytical thinkers who can then carry such values into the professional environment and into civic life in general. In other words, is it really enough to ask a student to sign a plagiarism form, or to tick a box, without getting that student to consider the reasoning behind it. This article covers how we, as lecturers, can embed ethics into their teaching so that undergraduates get into good habits from the get go.
