I'd be in a constant fog if not for your enlightening vlog. Tara you are a blessing. Thank you for all your passion and energy to help connect people and shine a bright shiny light on the secret world of phd business.
Congratulations on the 100th vlog Tara! I'm still doing my undergrad (final year whoop!) but I've been watching your vlogs and they're just so insightful and interesting! Thank you! xx
I admire you all for starting on and at varying stages of your PHD ! I am just starting my Academic journey with an Access Module with the Open University then an Hons Degree in Forensic Psychology BSc.
You sort, package and unpack academic matters very well Tara. I love your vlogs so much that I don't watch you unless I know that nobody is going to interrupt me during that time.
You are just amazing Tara! I don’t have words to describe how privileged I feel knowing you are the dean of graduate research at our uni. ❤️❤️❤️. I love this vlog. Have already watched it 3 times!
Tara you are a Godsend! I am just discovering all your vlogs and wish that I had seen this one year ago when I first started my PhD! Well, better late than never :) Your videos are so inspiring!
Ok, I must admit that I have watched this vlog numerous times. I watch at least one of your vlogs each day. Your vlogs motivate me. Now that you have reached your 100th vlog, I would love for you to make a vlog on your top 5 or top 10 most popular vlogs. The top 10 most popular vlogs can give a brief summary on what you discussed and countdown to your #1 most popular vlog. Hector can accompany you on this vlog. lol :-)
Now that you mentioned your beloved husband, would you mind recording a video about how to manage relationships while doing a PhD? Especially for international students whose husbands and wives are at home while you are studying the whole day. Thank you very much Mrs. Tara!
Dear Tara, I agree that 5 manuscripts are not equivalent to a classic dissertation (that's why I have included 14 manuscripts in my publication-based dissertation, and added an extensive introduction and discussion), but can you please elaborate on your claim that refereeing is different from examination? Isn't the point of examination to ensure that the candidate is prepared for publishing in peer-reviewed journals? Thank you - Sascha
Hi Sascha - so lovely to hear from you :) Great question. Sascha - the point of examination is to ensure that the PhD is of international quality. Full stop. That means that the candidate has an original contribution to knowledge, can manage the literature, holds information literacy, can configure an argument and recognizes their place in scholarship. Crucial. All of that can be attained without publications. Refereeing is confirming that an article matches the criteria of a specific journal. Those criteria differ enormously, just as refereeing differs enormously (non blind, blind, double blind) and the quality of that refereeing varies (as we all know!). So an article is nested in the criteria of a journal, confirmed by refereeing. Examination confirms the standard of a degree :) Thanks for being you :) Txxx
Hi Tara! I know my comment won't reach you but I just wanted to tell you that you're teachings are really valuable however I can't agree with you when you say a Masters is NOT an original contribution. A Msc student can contribute just as original research as a PhD depending on where you are. PhD is more comprehensive than Msc but as a double masters degree holder I have published original research papers in peer review journals and I don't believe PhD is always better than Msc. I believe that's outdated thinking and honestly it's hurtful to someone who works just as hard but gets half the recognition. Otherwise good video!
Morning Niki - Tara here. Niki - I absolutely know that the Masters can hold incredibly original ideas. I'm about to enrol in my 4th Masters. I LOVE them. And great original work _can_ emerge. The examiners for my first research masters put in their reports that this should be a PhD - because it had originality :). But the definitional difference - in policy - is originality. That is always a proxy - an inelegant one - for scope and scale. But you will never hear me question the fabulous masters. But in definitional terms - that is the distinction between a masters and a PhD. You are wonderful. Long live the Masters! txxx
