Piret Kärtner (Estonia)
Academic teaching and learning is research- based. Both university and secondary students get involved in doing research during their studies. English Language Olympiad is one of the many contests where students have to present research papers. In universities students write seminar papers, BA, MA and PhD theses. Just the same way teachers and lecturers have to act as supervisors to their students. The session is discussing the main aspects of the supervision procedure and the roles of students and supervisors on the different stages of the process.
