23 Things for Research: An International Collaboration

Abstract: The newly launched 23 Things programme is an international collaboration between the University of Surrey (UK), the University of Otago and Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand. The course consists of 23 “things” such as presentations, blogs, workshops etc., each highlighting a useful tool that a researcher, particularly, a doctoral supervisors and students, may not have encountered before or may want to develop further. The team releases a blog post each week with two new “things” for participants to work through according to a timetable or at their own pace. Most importantly, this version of the programme is collaborative, participants work in “pods” with colleagues around the world. The webinar session aimed at sharing this newly developed idea, reporting the work in progress by demonstrating how the programme functioned and highlighted the significance of the programme.
