OVERVIEW Your research questions will guide your analytic planning, data collection, analysis, and interpretation of findings. This cornerstone of research is deceptively simple, and is often what Fellows return to and refine throughout the Fellowship. This session will jumpstart that process, distinguishing between research objectives, agendas, and questions, discussing different types of research questions, applying insights to their capstone project and planning forward.
Take a well-deserved pause and enjoy 15 minutes of sweet treats, fresh fruit, and a coffee boost to recharge your energy and keep the day moving smoothly.
All meals and breaks will be located in the Gutman Conference Center Lobby (Floor 1). An information desk will be located in the Gutman Lobby throughout the event.
OVERVIEW As we wrap up our time together in Cambridge, this closing session invites us to reflect on the major takeaways from our shared experience. Together, we’ll surface what you’re most eager for and any lingering questions you still have as you move forward.
We’ll also co-create a vision for what you hope to see, learn, and benefit from in the next stages of your journey. This session will provide important reminders about what’s coming next and introduce you to our central home base for ongoing resources and reminders. Most importantly, we will take a moment to express gratitude and appreciation to our peers for the commitment, insight, and support shared this week and in all the work ahead. PRE-WORK None
