Download or read book The Grad School Journal written by Elizabeth Mulherron, M.A., M.A. and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-29 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a grad student, for grad students. This guided journal is designed to help graduate students entering into a Masters or professional certificate program to mentally and emotionally process their experiences in grad school while encouraging professional growth and providing tools to help complete their program's requirements. Students go through a series of exercises (such as goal setting, mid-way point reflections, and work-life balance activities) throughout their time in the program at their own pace. The journal is meant to be complimentary to the graduate school experience, and as such does not provide an overwhelming amount of additional work for the reader, rather it helps to teach skills and incorporate meaningful experiences that can enhance the graduate school experience without becoming an additional burden.

Download or read book 57 Ways to Screw Up in Grad School written by Kevin D. Haggerty and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-08-15 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to a masters or PhD program, most graduate students don't deliberately set out to fail. Yet, of the nearly 500,000 people who start a graduate program each year, up to half will never complete their degree. Books abound on acing the admissions process, but there is little on what to do once the acceptance letter arrives. Veteran graduate directors Kevin D. Haggerty and Aaron Doyle have set out to demystify the world of advanced education. Taking a wry, frank approach, they explain the common mistakes that can trip up a new graduate student and lay out practical advice about how to avoid the pitfalls. Along the way they relate stories from their decades of mentorship and even share some slip-ups from their own grad experiences.
Download or read book Academic Library Services for Graduate Students written by Carrie Forbes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-06-05 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing practical and theoretical chapters on academic library services for graduate students, this volume helps information professionals support this often-overlooked campus population to address their multiple roles and identities as students and as future faculty members or professionals. As more and more students attend graduate programs, many higher education institutions have established professional development programs to help graduate students learn the wide range of skills needed to be successful as both students and as future professionals or academics. To presuppose that graduate students are proficient library users is a mistake. Graduate students need and want help, and many libraries are now offering specialized services for this diverse population. Contributors to this edited volume provide case studies and practical advice on academic library services for graduate students that support their multiple roles on campus and address the complex social and emotional issues related to their other roles as parents, working adults, caretakers, and more. As academic libraries shift from functioning primarily as collections repositories to collaborating as key players in discovery and knowledge creation, value-added services for graduate students are even more central to libraries' changing missions. This book makes an important contribution to the ongoing professional conversation and is a useful tool for librarians who want to better support graduate students at their institutions.
Download or read book The Graduate Student as Writer written by Shuyi Chua and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-06-28 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When is it the best time to publish?""What are drafting and freewriting and why are they important?""Do you need to be very knowledgeable to publish?""Why are some students more successful in publishing than others?""Why am I afraid to write?"These are some questions that you will find answers to in "The Graduate Student As Writer: Encouragement for the Budding Scholar." As graduate students, you may feel the pressure to write and publish. You may compare yourselves to peers who have already published. Or you want to improve your chances of finding an academic position after graduation. However, the process of writing and publishing is not straightforward and seldom discussed amongst students, leaving many to stumble along and figure things out alone.If you are looking for some heart-to-heart talk from one graduate student to another on the mindset, skills, and process that are needed for effective and efficient writing and publishing, this book is for you.This book simplifies the writing process into four stages: Drafting, Feedback, Rewriting and Editing. It maintains that a graduate student is not merely training to be an academic, but is also a writer and artist. It also addresses misconceptions about writing that can hinder your progress, such as thinking that you must have it all together before you can begin.This book is written with the graduate student from a Social Science field in mind, but students of all fields will find its contents applicable.If you feel discouraged that you're not making progress in your writing, this book with chapters in bite-sized readings will encourage you and give you insights into your fears and inspiration to uplift you.Chapters of the book include: "Writing as a Tool", "Begin Writing at Every Stage of your Graduate Studies", "Start Small Wherever You Are", "Fear of Feedback", and "Value and Enjoy the Process, Not Just the Outcome."
Download or read book Learning from the Lived Experiences of Graduate Student Writers written by Shannon Madden and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2020-07-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning from the Lived Experiences of Graduate Student Writers is a timely resource for understanding and resolving some of the issues graduate students face, particularly as higher education begins to pay more critical attention to graduate student success. Offering diverse approaches for assisting this demographic, the book bridges the gap between theory and practice through structured examination of graduate students’ narratives about their development as writers, as well as researched approaches for enabling these students to cultivate their craft. The first half of the book showcases the voices of graduate student writers themselves, who describe their experiences with graduate school literacy through various social issues like mentorship, access, writing in communities, and belonging in academic programs. Their narratives illuminate how systemic issues significantly affect graduate students from historically oppressed groups. The second half accompanies these stories with proposed solutions informed by empirical findings that provide evidence for new practices and programming for graduate student writers. Learning from the Lived Experiences of Graduate Student Writers values student experience as an integral part of designing approaches that promote epistemic justice. This text provides a fresh, comprehensive, and essential perspective on graduate writing and communication support that will be useful to administrators and faculty across a range of disciplines and institutional contexts.
