While our September DE300 (Open University Module) event introduces the core areas and methods and helps you select the method you will use for your DE300 project, this follow-up weekend focuses on how to do the project for your EMA and write it up, along with consideration of the iCMA.This weekend offers a full programme of eight talks, running from Friday evening (7.45pm) to teatime on Sunday (last talk finishes at 3.00pm). Attendees can arrive any time after 3pm on Friday afternoon, with dinner served at 6pm. All meals are served on Saturday, and breakfast and lunch are served on Sunday.
The focus of the weekend will be on how to carry out the project for your EMA, how to analyse the data collected and how to write this up. In addition it is a chance to meet up with other students studying your course.
This is a highly-tailored event, with more sessions than we usually run as we understand that each project-type has its own particular needs. The initial sessions will be shared by all students and we will then split the group by project type so that you can get the information most relevant to you.
Tutors on this weekend are all highly experienced and are chosen to give you the variety of specialised knowledge and advice needed to cover the different psychological approaches used in DE300. Tutors: Dr Angie Johnson, Phil Hulme and Dr Fiona Essig
The lectures are conducted in management conference seminar rooms within the University campus, and you will have been provided with a timetable of talks and lecture notes before you arrive.
You can choose how you spend your time. If you book the residential package then you will have a very comfortable ensuite room in management conference facilities complete with bedding, towels, a hairdryer, coffee-making facilities and desk. Wifi is also included.
The full cost is inclusive of all meals, including Friday night and Saturday night dinner. There are no extra costs involved (except for drinks at the bar!). As well as your room and all meals this includes refreshments at break times, extensive handouts which are only available to attendees, revision of key course material, advice on revision techniques and assessment, welcome drink on Friday night. Non-residential places are available for a reduction, and the same breakfast, lunch, dinner and all tea/coffee/snack breaks during the day are still included.
The welcome briefing and the bookstall are great opportunities to meet the tutors and other students over a free glass of wine or soft drink. Our OUPS committee member will also introduce themselves so you'll know who to contact if you have any questions. You can enjoy your meals with a group of students in the comfortable dining room. The food is fresh, healthy catering, and there is something to entice everyone.
Finally, whilst most students leave exhausted from the learning and socialising, they comment that it is such a worthwhile weekend, and we see many of them return each year as they progress their studies.
2 free places are available for this event but they are only available to current members of OUPS. If you wish to apply please take out OUPS membership and log on as a member.
