WEGO will be holding its second annual training lab in June. All of the WEGO-ITN will meet on-line in order to give feedback to the PhDs on their project. Timing is key given the different time zones so the training will be spread over several days with two maximum hours on-line. PhD mini-lectures and Plenaries will be recorded.
WEGO Partner Punti di Vista will be coordinating the event on Zoom.
Pre Mini-lectures: 10-13 June PhD mini-lectures 13.00 CEST (recorded).
Plenaries: 15, 16 & 17 June and 25 June 13.00 CEST.
Workshops: 15-18 June time to be determined by groups according to time zone with the exception of 18 June where workshops will be held 13.00 CEST
More off-line time will be used for reading, commenting on texts, writing and being creative together.
You can watch the plenaries and discussions of the second training lab 2020 here.
PhD Mini Lectures the week prior to the training on 10, 11 and 12 June
Each PhD will present in 10 minutes:
- What they are researching and where they are in their PhD process
- How they are interpreting FPE
- One thing that COVID-19 has changed and one thing that COVID-19 has opened up in with the networks with whom they engaging
The presentation has to be written up in 1-2 pages and made available on drop box along with the link to the recordings.
Mentors and other PhDs will be asked to be at the zoom meetings and to be prepared to give comments during the feedback working groups (and/or in writing).
