Abstract

[Extract] On Thursday, October, 2014, James Cook University held its inaugural Graduate Student Symposium in which we highlighted the research activity of our Education graduate students currently enrolled in Honours, Graduate Certificate of Research Methods, Masters or Doctoral studies. A symposium is all about 'convivial discussion' and that is what we as conveners sought, above all, to foster. The event was unique because it involved students from our three campuses (Cairns, Singapore, and Townsville) as well as our External students. The event was open to the public and communicated through the web-based platforms Collaborate and Skype. The symposium was structured to allow the twelve participating graduate students to present from one of these locations to audience in all three campuses and online. The program ran from 2:00 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. allowing for two sessions to run concurrently. Each session lasted for 30 minutes, allowing for a maximum of 20 minute presentation followed by a 5 minute discussion.
