As Hannah Laurens argues, a truly outstanding #PhD is one that stands out owing to its original insight. An outstanding PhD is one that pushes boundaries, posits new challenges, and possibly even presents a view that turns things upside down. www.lexacademic.com/blog/passing...

I keep hearing people say that in the digital age, it’s no longer important for books to have an index. I don’t get that at all—there are so many things you can easily find in a good index, but not in a searchable ebook or PDF! Examples are in the comments below (feel free to add more). #AcademicSky

While academic research is often replete with spanners in the works, far from fearing such scenarios and treating all curveballs as failures, we should embrace them for affording us the opportunity to “put the problem into the work”. www.lexacademic.com/blog/putting...

It is easy to underestimate how long applying for a PhD can take. The first step to applying for PhD funding is to isolate your academic work from the administrative task of applying for funding. www.lexacademic.com/blog/applyin... #PhDfunding #PhDapplications

AI cannot replicate the depth of human interaction that is central to #EthnographicResearch. The tone of voice, meaningful silences, cultural subtleties, and the trust built through genuine human connection are indispensable for uncovering the complexities. These are more than data points!
