Doctoral Students Present Research at
Virtual First-Year Poster Session
The UCI School of Education hosted its annual Ph.D. Poster Session on November 13. Normally held in the hallowed halls of the School of Education building, the event entered a virtual space for the first time in its history.
Faculty, staff and students viewed presentations from 27 doctoral students in a virtual space modeled after the School's courtyard. Attendees controlled an avatar and moved across virtual booths, viewing different presentations and interacting with guests. Identical to a physical space, students presented their research simultaneously, and were able to explain their research and field questions from faculty and fellow students. "Today marks a day of great innovation - not only in the research from our doctoral students, but in the efforts that our faculty, staff and students made to ensure this event went forward," said Richard Arum, dean of the UCI School of Education. "This event is a hallmark of our Ph.D program and, for many of our students, represents the first occasion in what will be a long career of presenting research to colleagues." Held every fall, the Ph.D. Poster Session features second-year doctoral students presenting their first year of research. Posters from all second-year doctoral students are featured below. |
