For the past months, we have been working on a campaign to diversify the content on the BU research blog. We would like to encourage all academics and postgraduates to share their research and research interests in new exciting, creative and informal ways on this blog.
What are we looking for?
The style and types of blog posts we’re looking for include:
- Personal writing style
- Themes (posts relating to national, international and awareness days)
- A variety of content (e.g., behind the scenes, upcoming or past events, opinion pieces including discussions on topical affairs and other research interests, reviews, fieldwork/research experiences, Q&A interviews),
- Blog series (e.g., A week in the life of…, Postgraduate student series, Research project series such as updates on fieldwork, progress etc., PhD series, Get to Know Me)
- A variety of media formats (e.g., vlogs, informative videos, podcast discussions, interviews with guests, infographics, photos,)
Who to contact?
If you’d like some help or guidance with getting started, please get in contact with Sacha Gardener (sgardener@bournemouth.ac.uk). Please also share this news with your colleagues and postgraduate students who you think have something to share!
