Direct Instruction in PhD Organization, Research Design, Analysis

Sometimes we just need a series of lectures and discussions to help us understand both the larger context of research and the specifics of how we are expected to write it up.  Using web-based technologies, and depending on which service is being paid for, DoctoralNet professors share presentations, show how to do the work by sharing their screens (or yours), read writing and give feedback - all in the course of the learning experience.

Weekend Mini Retreats

New for 2013, DoctoralNet professors will dedicate full weekends where we will man the conference room 24 hours a day as all participants focus on one issue within dissertation/thesis work.  Students will drop in, here the basic ideas and ask questions targeted to their situation.  Then they will work in their home environment and come back with ideas or writing to consider.  Professors and small groups will give feedback.  Participants are allowed to come as often and for as long as they wish as they move ahead on the topic under consideration.  January 26th, 27th is our inaugraural weekend and we will focus on "Finding your topic and developing a defensible methodology around it."

Personalized Feedback

Whereever you meet one of our professors you can be assured that the more you explain your situation, the more we can offer personalized feedback and support.

Virtual Lectures and Group Work

DoctoralNet makes the most of web-based synchronous activities.  Professors offer lectures on topics that help propel your work, they also may suggest that participants that day split off to work together in smaller groups and that those groups come back to inform the whole.  We are, in everyway possible, a classroom without walls or time constraints.
