 How it works: writers (graduate students and others) register by email, show up at 9:00 a.m. in Killam B400, and tell the group what they will do that day. Writers return at 4:00 p.m. and tell the group what they accomplished.
Special feature this year: on Tuesday and Wednesday a.m., we will use the Pomodoro technique (writing in 25-minute spurts in the same room as other writers) to see if that gets you writing. If you would rather continue to write in your own space, that’s fine. Thursday a.m. will be an opportunity to peer edit and ask questions. Please note: Writing Week is open to all Dalhousie students (or faculty or staff if they want to) who need to get a document written. Monday: Day of planning and writing on your own Tuesday & Wednesday: Writing using the Pomodoro technique in the morning; in the afternoon, writing on your own Thursday: Peer editing and Q&A in the morning; in the afternoon, writing on your own Friday morning: Continuation of the writing on your own & planning For more information and to register email the Writing Centre at janice.eddington@dal.ca

Perhaps the most important relationship you have as a graduate student is with your supervisor. Good student-supervisor relationships are associated with higher completion rates and faster times to completion. The relationship requires clear communication and shared expectations. Easy to say, but not always easy to do.
Join the Faculty of Graduate Studies for this half-day conference to explore the dynamics of the student-supervisor relationship and how they can be optimized. This event is for you whether you’re a new graduate student who wants to learn strategies and best practice or an experienced graduate student who wants to share what you’ve learned. Time Starts: Friday May 3, 2019 - 12:00 PM Ends: Friday May 3, 2019 - 04:00 PM Location Collaborative Health Education Building (CHEB) C170 Additional Information Agenda
Contact RSVP by April 26th The Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) invites individuals, organizations, groups and associations who are interested in informing the content of the Post-Secondary Student Standard (PSS Standard) to get involved! Inform the Standard by responding to an anonymous survey
We are working to develop a voluntary Standard for Psychological Health and Safety for Post-Secondary Students. This Standard will create a consistent evidence-informed approach for any post-secondary institution across Canada to implement. Set to be released in early 2020, it will support #studentsuccess by promoting and strengthening student mental health. We are encouraging dialogues across the country until May 31, 2019. Your participation will not only help raise awareness of the project but also help ensure that this Standard is informed by perspectives from across the country. We greatly appreciate all the time and effort you dedicate to this cause. The MHCC and the CSA Group gratefully acknowledge the funding support of Bell Let's Talk, The Rossy Foundation, the RBC Foundation, and Health Canada in developing the PSS Standard. Other key partnerships include but are not limited to Universities Canada and Colleges and Institutes Canada. Get involved: visit our webpage (https://www.mentalhealthcommission.ca/English/studentstandard) to access FAQs, Scoping Review Summary, contact info, events and more.
