CALL for Postgraduate Open Session Participants

The organisers of the LSA 2005 Conference are reviving the occasional LSA tradition of including an open session within the conference for postgraduate student presentations.

This session is intended to provide a supportive opportunity for postgrad students in leisure studies to present their work and to deal with questions from the floor. Constructive feedback will be provided afterwards, if the presenter so wishes. The situation will be professionally conducted but informal, ideal for both experienced students and those who may have little or no experience of academic conferences.

Participants need not address the conference theme and may cover leisure studies-related theory, method or both, or report on work in progress rather than results. Presentations may consider tourism, sport, leisure education, gender, management, geography and so on.

"Slots" are 20 minutes for presentation and discussion.

Post-grad sessions will be chaired by Professor Diana Woodward, University Director of Research at Napier University.

Students' own Supervisors are encouraged to attend.

Registration for Post-Grad sessions (students and supervisors) is offered at an extremely favourable rate.
