International Doctoral Education Research Network 2010
hmm, this is my 2nd time attending conference as a postgrad student, and my 1st time for international conference. i can say that i benefited a lot from this. alhamdulillah.
the speakers and the presentations were fabulous. i get to know more about the nature of research postgraduate student life (how to write a good thesis, supervision process, publishing articles in jurnals, viva and much2 more).
my session is just 2 days, started at 830am, ended at 7pm. it was an interesting thing to get to know the speakers, how they share their knowledges, the way they interact with audient, and built up a networking with other postgrad students. the participants are not just from Malaysia. they came from Yamen, Bangladesh, China, Singapore, and many other countries. and i was very happy to know that there were some of the participants were also phd students w/o masters! so, lots of things can be shared =)
