EDST Student Café
Date and time: Thursday, March 25th, 10:00 – 11:00 am PT
Location: Virtual (Zoom)
Description: It can be difficult to catch up when we’re not running into each other in the halls between class, and being a virtual grad student can feel a bit isolating sometimes. If you can fit one more Zoom meeting in your schedule, we hope you’ll join us for a student café this month. Bring your own warm drink and join us for a virtual, non-academic chat.
Please RSVP here or contact edst.gaa@ubc.ca with questions.

‘Qualitative Interviewing Analysis: An Introduction’, with Dr. Deirdre Kelly
Date and time: Tuesday, March 16, 12:00-1:00pm PT
Location: Virtual (Zoom)
Description: Analysis takes place throughout any qualitative inquiry, and it unfolds differently, depending on your research paradigm and approach to inquiry. This workshop will address the middle steps in the process, focusing on studies where interviewing is the main method. Once you have finished conducting your interviews, what happens next? In answering this question, Dr. Kelly will emphasize reflexive thematic analysis because its tools and practices are compatible with a variety of interpretive frameworks.
Please RSVP here or contact edst.gaa@ubc.ca with questions.

Are you an EDST alum? You’re invited to participate in a study about your career path
Dear Educational Studies Alumni*,
André Mazawi, Alison Taylor, Jude Walker, Deirdre Kelly (faculty members), Michael Murphy (Alumni engagement), and I, Mary Kostandy (doctoral student), are inviting you to participate in an alumni survey about your career path.
The Diverse Career Paths of Educational Studies Alumni study and initiative is funded by the Faculty of Education Learning Transformed grant and the UBC Advancing Education Renewal grant. The study aims to draw on the career experiences of Educational Studies (EDST) alumni to support graduate students in exploring diverse career pathways.
In this survey, we seek to:
• Learn about your career path. We aim to share the aggregated results (without participant names) with current graduate students, potential applicants, and the EDST faculty.
• Invite you to sign up for possible events and activities to support graduate students in their career explorations (You are welcome to leave your contact information in the survey so that we can contact you about engaging in events and activities related to this project).
• Provide feedback to the EDST program(s) about the impact of the EDSTs degrees on alumni’s careers (At the end of the survey, you will have the option to continue to a separate anonymous survey for EDST program feedback).
The survey will take approximately 20 minutes. Please feel free to skip any question you do not wish to answer.
If you are interested in participating in this study, please refer to the information displayed on the first page of our Qualtrics survey. If you decide to participate, please complete the survey by the deadline, which has now been extended to Friday, March 26th, 2021: Survey Link
If you want to engage with graduate students but do not prefer to leave your contact information in this survey, or if you have any questions or concerns about this study, kindly contact me at: mary.kostandy@ubc.ca. You can also contact André Mazawi (Principal Investigator), via phone: 604–827–5537, or email at: andre.mazawi@ubc.ca.
*Before 1994, Educational Studies was known as the Department of Social and Educational Studies (SEDS), and the Department of Administrative, Adult and Higher Education (AAHE). If you are an alum of any of those departments we highly encourage you to participate in the survey!
Sincerely,
Mary Kostandy, on behalf of the study team,
