Practice as Research
EDITED BY: Estelle Barrett & Barbara Bolt
"Practice-led research is a burgeoning area across the creative arts, with studio-based doctorates frequently favored over traditional research. Yet until now there has been little published guidance for students embarking on such research. This is the first book designed specifically as a pedagogical tool and is structured on the model used by most research programs."

Phenomenological Research Methods
BY: Clark Moustakas
"In this volume, Clark Moustakas clearly discusses the theoretical underpinnings of phenomenology, based on the work of Husserl and others, and takes the reader step-by-step through the process of conducting a phenomenological study. His concise guide provides numerous examples of successful phenomenological studies from a variety of fields including therapy, health care, victimology, psychology and gender studies."
Defining Authorship
The preparation, submission and publication of a research output is a compulsory component of research training for a Griffith Higher Degree by Research (HDR) candidate. Mentoring this process is an important role of HDR supervisors. In Australia and internationally, the production of a research output involving both supervisor, candidate, and sometimes other collaborators and research participants, is a common source of disputes, distress, and complaints within the candidate-supervisor relationship.
Copyright Guide
Copyright law determines when and how you can copy, publish, communicate or perform works that others have created. Copyright begins once a work has been created and requires no formal registration. These laws apply to HDR candidates. A full explanation of Copyright can be found here.
