SUMMARY:Effective PhD Meetings and Efficient Feedback in Doctoral Supervision
DESCRIPTION:Supervising PhD students is one of the many functions that make up an academia career. Holding supervision meetings can occupy a large percentage of our schedules; however\, supervisors and students aften avoid them (in favor of emails\, for example). On the other hand\, PhD students may feel that the meetings are not fruitful or even useful\, and supervisors may feel that PhD students do not make the most of the time allocated for the meeting. \nBoth may feel that there are not enough hours in the day to hold them\, along with other commitments and expectations. However\, the literature has shown that very few Higher Education Institutions issue guidelines for supervision meetings (Coutts\, E & Marshall\, P 2019; Woods & Berger\, 1988). \n  \n\nGENERAL INFORMATION:\nThe ‘Effective PhD Meetings and Efficient Feedback in Doctoral Supervision‘ workshop will be held online on October 9th\, from 2pm to 5pm. The session will be conducted in english. \n  \nRegistrations are open until September 30. \n\nCIIMAR & IPMA members (priority for PhDs): free\nStandard: 100€ (CCMAR members have a 50% discount)\n\n  \nNOTE: The attendance certificate will be issued if the trainee attends at least 80% of the total course time. \nIf tickets are sold out\, you can sign up for the waiting list (you will be notified in order of registration). \n  \n\nDESCRIPTION:\nThis training aims to present and discuss strategies to make supervision meetings more efficient for both supervisors and students. \nThe followiong topics will be covered: \n\nReflection on the objectives of meetings;\nPresentation of the main gains of different formats;\nYerkes-Dodson Law;\nUsefulness of group meetings and 1-on-1 meetings;\nWhat to covere in the first meeting;\nMeeting structure;\nFeedback.\n\nTrainer: Ana Freitas \n\nBachelor’s degree in Education (IE–University of Minho); Master’s degree in Educational Sciences (IE–University of Minho); PhD candidate in Educational Sciences with a research focus on Doctoral Education (FPCEUP). Certified as a teacher trainer (CCPFC/RFO-16273/03) and as a trainer of trainers (EDF-42336-2003). She is currently a Visiting Assistant Lecturer at the University of Porto (Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of Sciences) and a doctoral research fellow at CIIE – Centre for Research and Intervention in Education\, FPCEUP.

SUMMARY:Reuniões doutorais eficazes e feedback eficiente na supervisão doutoral
DESCRIPTION:A supervisão doutoral é uma dimensão central da carreira académica\, envolvendo não apenas o acompanhamento científico\, mas também a gestão eficaz do processo de orientação do desenvolvimento do/a doutorando/a. As reuniões de orientação constituem um espaço privilegiado para este acompanhamento\, podendo representar uma parte significativa da agenda dos orientadores\, quando estes orientam múltiplos estudantes. \nNo entanto\, estas reuniões nem sempre são utilizadas de forma estratégica. A pressão de múltiplos compromissos\, a ausência de referenciais claros e a tendência para substituir encontros por comunicações assíncronas (como o email) podem comprometer a sua eficácia. Acresce que\, muitas vezes\, não existem diretrizes institucionais claras para a condução destas reuniões (Coutts & Marshall\, 2019; Woods & Berger\, 1988). \n  \n\nINFORMAÇÕES GERAIS:\nO workshop ‘Reuniões doutorais eficazes e feedback eficiente na supervisão doutoral‘ será realizado no IPMA\, dia 29 de maio\, das 9h30 às 12h30. A sessão será dinamizada em português. \n  \nAs inscrições estão abertas até dia 27 de maio.\n\n\nMembros do CIIMAR e IPMA (prioridade para doutorados): gratuito\nStandard: 100€ (membros do CCMAR têm desconto de 50%)\n\n\n  \nNOTA: O certificado de participação será emitido caso o formando compareça a\, pelo menos\, 80% do tempo total do curso. \nCaso os tickets estejam esgotados\, pode inscrever-se na lista de espera (será notificado por ordem de inscrição). \n  \n\nDESCRIÇÃO:\nEsta formação tem como objetivo apoiar orientadores no desenvolvimento de práticas de supervisão mais estruturadas\, intencionais e eficientes\, potenciando o impacto das reuniões de orientação. \nSerão abordados os seguintes tópicos: \n\nReflexão sobre os objetivos das reuniões;\nApresentação das mais-valias dos diferentes formatos;\nLei de Yerkes-Dodson;\nUtilidade das reuniões coletivas e das reuniões 1-1;\nO que abordar na 1ª reunião;\nEstrutura das reuniões;\nFeedback.\n\n  \nFormadora: Ana Freitas \n\nLicenciatura em Educação (IE-UMinho); Mestrado em Ciências da Educação (IE-UMinho); doutoranda em Ciências da Educação no tema ‘Educação Doutoral’ (FPCEUP).\nCertificada como formadora de professores (CCPFC/RFO-16273/03) e como formadora de formadores (EDF-42336-2003).\nÉ atualmente assistente convidada na Universidade do Porto (Faculdade de Engenharia e Faculdade de Ciências) e doctoral research fellow no CIIE – Centro de Investigação e Intervenção Educativas\, na FPCEUP.

SUMMARY:From Question to Measure: Designing a Good Questionnaire
DESCRIPTION:Questionnaires are among the most widely used data collection tools in scientific research. However\, their apparent simplicity conceals a set of methodological decisions which\, when not properly grounded\, can compromise the validity and reliability of the data collected and\, consequently\, the conclusions of the research.   \nThis training adopts a strongly practical orientation: it starts from the most common errors observed in questionnaire design in research settings and\, through group-based exercises\, develops the skills required to produce rigorous\, clear\, and study-appropriate measurement instruments. \n  \n\nGENERAL INFORMATION:\nThis workshop will be a two-day event\, taking place on May 18 and 21\, at IPMA\, Matosinhos\, from 9:30am to 1pm. \nThe sessions can be held in portuguese or english\, depending on the preferences indicated in the registration. \n  \nRegistrations are open until May 15. \n\nCIIMAR & IPMA members: free\nStandard: 100€ (CCMAR members have a 50% discount)\n\n  \nNOTE: The attendance certificate will be issued if the trainee attends at least 80% of the total course time. \nIf tickets are sold out\, you can sign up for the waiting list through this link (you will be notified in order of registration). \n  \n\nDESCRIPTION:\nBy the end of the training\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify the principles that distinguish a well-designed questionnaire from a problematic one; \nSelect the appropriate scale type and response format for different variables and research objectives; \nFormulate clear\, unambiguous items free from wording bias; \nStructure and order a questionnaire to minimise context effects and respondent fatigue; \nCritically review questionnaires produced by others (and by themselves)\, identifying areas for improvement; \nApply these principles to develop a questionnaire tailored to their own field of research.\n\n  \n Programme: \n1st day (May 18th) \n\nFoundations\n\nWhat is a good questionnaire?;\nTypes of variables and measurement scales. Common research errors;\n\n\nItem Construction\n\nWriting clear and valid items;\nWording and response biases;\nQuestionnaire structure and format.\n\n\n\n2nd day (May 21st) \n\nPractical Exercise (I)\n\nGroup work: participants design a mini-questionnaire relevant to their field;\nCritical analysis;\n\n\nPractical Exercise (II)\n\nPeer review of questionnaires;\nGuided discussion: what to improve and why;\n\n\nClosing Session\n\nKey principles summary;\nRecommended resources.\n\n\n\n  \nTrainer: Virgínia da Conceição \nVirgínia is a clinical and health psychologist and researcher at the Health Policy and Systems Lab of the Institute of Public Health of the University of Porto (ISPUP – EpiUnit/ITR). She holds a PhD in Public Health from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Porto and is the Principal Investigator of the BRIDGE-MH project (2024.15502.PEX)\, which focuses on the evaluation of mental health promotion programmes in higher education.  \n

However\, their apparent simplicity conceals a set of methodological decisions which\, when not properly grounded\, can compromise the validity and reliability of the data collected and\, consequently\, the conclusions of the research.   \nThis training adopts a strongly practical orientation: it starts from the most common errors observed in questionnaire design in research settings and\, through group-based exercises\, develops the skills required to produce rigorous\, clear\, and study-appropriate measurement instruments. \n  \n\nGENERAL INFORMATION:\nThis workshop will be a two-day event\, taking place on May 18 and 21\, at IPMA\, Matosinhos\, from 9:30am to 1pm. \nThe sessions can be held in portuguese or english\, depending on the preferences indicated in the registration. \n  \nRegistrations are open until May 15. \n\nCIIMAR & IPMA members: free\nStandard: 100€ (CCMAR members have a 50% discount)\n\n  \nNOTE: The attendance certificate will be issued if the trainee attends at least 80% of the total course time. \nIf tickets are sold out\, you can sign up for the waiting list through this link (you will be notified in order of registration). \n  \n\nDESCRIPTION:\nBy the end of the training\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify the principles that distinguish a well-designed questionnaire from a problematic one; \nSelect the appropriate scale type and response format for different variables and research objectives; \nFormulate clear\, unambiguous items free from wording bias; \nStructure and order a questionnaire to minimise context effects and respondent fatigue; \nCritically review questionnaires produced by others (and by themselves)\, identifying areas for improvement; \nApply these principles to develop a questionnaire tailored to their own field of research.\n\n  \n Programme: \n1st day (May 18th) \n\nFoundations\n\nWhat is a good questionnaire?;\nTypes of variables and measurement scales. Common research errors;\n\n\nItem Construction\n\nWriting clear and valid items;\nWording and response biases;\nQuestionnaire structure and format.\n\n\n\n2nd day (May 21st) \n\nPractical Exercise (I)\n\nGroup work: participants design a mini-questionnaire relevant to their field;\nCritical analysis;\n\n\nPractical Exercise (II)\n\nPeer review of questionnaires;\nGuided discussion: what to improve and why;\n\n\nClosing Session\n\nKey principles summary;\nRecommended resources.\n\n\n\n  \nTrainer: Virgínia da Conceição \nVirgínia is a clinical and health psychologist and researcher at the Health Policy and Systems Lab of the Institute of Public Health of the University of Porto (ISPUP – EpiUnit/ITR). She holds a PhD in Public Health from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Porto and is the Principal Investigator of the BRIDGE-MH project (2024.15502.PEX)\, which focuses on the evaluation of mental health promotion programmes in higher education.  \n

SUMMARY:Multivariate Statistics with R for Biological Sciences
DESCRIPTION:20 hours course \nThis course will focus on the most useful techniques of multivariate statistical analysis in Biological sciences. These will be principal component analysis\, canonical correspondence analysis\, multidimensional scaling\, discriminant analysis and cluster analysis. Other techniques\, such as correspondence analysis and factor analysis will be approached in a simpler way. Lastly\, some techniques will be approached in a very introductory way\, as it will be the case of canonical correlation\, and redundancy analysis. A brief introduction to parametron and non-parametric techniques for hypothesis contrasts (Hoteling test\, MANOVA\, PERMANOVA) will also be part of the first session. \nAlthough this course uses the R programming language as the basis for the examples and exercises\, which will undoubtedly help the student to become more familiar with it\, learning this language is not an objective of this course. \nGOALS/SKILLS \nThe general aim of the course is to become familiar with the basic concepts of multivariate statistics and to know in detail the main techniques. The methodology to do it consists of exemplified theoretical explanations\, for which the open source programming language R will be used. Students will receive the course lesson material in pdf format\, which contains the theoretical explanations together with worked examples. The examples will also be provided as scripts in R language. In addition\, students will be provided with data files\, which will be used to perform a series of exercises during class hours. These exercises will also be reviewed during class hours. \nPrerequisites: Basic knowledge of R \nINSTRUCTOR \nAldo Barreiro Felpeto is a researcher at Centro Interdisciplinar de Investigação Marinha e Ambiental (CIIMAR) associated to the University of Porto (Porto\, Portugal). His research career has focused in plankton ecology. He defended his Ph.D. dissertation in 2007 in the Department of Ecology at the University of Vigo (Vigo\, Spain) about interactions between zooplankton and toxic phytoplankton species from the Spanish NW Atlantic coast\, southern Baltic sea and southern Tirreno coast. In 2008-2010\, he performed a post-doctorate in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell University (Ithaca\, New York\, USA). Since 2011 he is a researcher at CIIMAR.

SUMMARY:Statistical Models with R for Biological Sciences
DESCRIPTION:30 hours course \nThe course’s first session is a reminder of linear regression and analysis of variance\, the two statistical techniques that constitute the basis of the most important frames of statistical models. These statistical models (GLM\, GLZ and GAM) will be the content of the next four sessions. \nGLM (General Linear Model) will be studied in the second and third sessions. Due to its robustness and relative simplicity\, this is the most widely used statistical model frame. For this reason\, in the course we spend more time with GLM than with the others modelling frameworks (GLZ\, GAM). Through worked examples will be explained the following topics: I) GLM assumptions\, how to test them and how to solve problems when certain of these assumptions are not met (data transformation for non-normality\, alternative fitting by generalized least squares for variance heteroscedasticity and residual autocorrelation); II) contrast of hypothesis for the main effects and post-hoc tests for the simple effects; III) visualization of model predictions. \nIn the GLM will be explained with particular detail the inclusion of random factors (simple mixed effects models\, hierarchical designs\, and random slopes designs). \nGLZ (Generalized Linear Models) are an extension of GLM for error distributions that could be different than Gaussian. Three worked examples will be shown for different distributions (binomial Poisson and negative binomial\, for over-dispersed data)\, and a simple example including random factors. \nGAM is a statistical model frame that could incorporate any features of GLM and GLZ. But\, in addition\, and considering additional restrictions\, they could incorporate smoothed functions (non-linear but non-parametric) to describe the relationship between the response variable and one or several predictor variables. This statistical model frame has been gaining popularity in different fields of science due to the increase in computer power over the last 20 years. \nAt least a beginner’s level in R language is recommended for this course\, and also some familiarity with basic statistical techniques (regression\, contrast of hypothesis\, ANOVA). \nThe course is open to any level from undergraduate students to senior researchers. It is considered as the “second part” of another course that is regularly taught in CIIMAR entitled Introductory Statistics for Biological Sciences. \nGOALS/SKILLS: \n– Understand the principles of the statistical model frames in order to apply them according to the features of data. \n– Test model assumptions with contrast of hypothesis and diagnosis graphs\, and learn to solve problems associated with this process (data transformation\, alternative fitting techniques\, alternative error distributions\, using non-linear or non-parametric fits). \n– Understand the difference between random and fixed factors and the possible ways to incorporate random factors in the model design. \n– Learn about the different contrast of hypothesis that can be performed in a statistical model (analysis of variance and analysis of deviance for the main effects\, Tukey\, Dunnett\, least significant differences\, etc. for the post-hoc). \n– Learn the most standard methods to select the best model among a series of candidates fit to the same data. \n  \nPrerequisites: Basic knowledge of R and statistics \n  \nINSTRUCTOR \nAldo Barreiro Felpeto is a researcher at Centro Interdisciplinar de Investigação Marinha e Ambiental (CIIMAR) associated to the University of Porto (Porto\, Portugal). His research career has focused in plankton ecology. He defended his Ph.D. dissertation in 2007 in the Department of Ecology at the University of Vigo (Vigo\, Spain) about interactions between zooplankton and toxic phytoplankton species from the Spanish NW Atlantic coast\, southern Baltic sea and southern Tirreno coast.

SUMMARY:Habitat mapping and modelling
DESCRIPTION:DESCRIPTION \nSurveys of the marine environment need to be converted into data products that are useful for marine management. One such product is the “biotope” map – a map of the environment categorised into areas with similar community and environmental conditions (or “habitats”). Such maps can show which biotopes are rare\, inform understanding of ecosystem functions\, and generally inform knowledge-based sustainable management for industrial development and conservation. \nThis three day workshop will give you a broad background in the concepts and methods behind generating biotope maps\, and will walk you through an example workflow based on methods currently being used by MAREANO\, Norway’s national seabed mapping programme. \nYou will learn cluster analysis techniques for biotope classification\, random forest modelling techniques for predictive mapping (and potentially others if time allows)\, and evaluation methods for assessing your predictions and communicating uncertainty. \nYou can be a complete beginner at modelling methods to take this course\, but all analyses will be performed in the R software environment (with R studio)\, so a basic level of R coding knowledge is necessary to make the most of this course. Scripts and data will be provided. \nIt will be held in English. \nOrganized by CIIMAR and IMR (Norway\, https://www.hi.no/en)\, in scope of the TwinDEEPS (a Horizon Europe project\, funded in scope of the Widening programme (Grant Agreement no. 101160298). \nTRAINERS \nDr Rebecca Ross (https://www.hi.no/en/hi/about-us/employees/rebecca-ross) \nRebecca is a deep-sea benthic ecologist and modeller. Her career is generally focussed on applied marine ecology – producing scientific results that support sustainable evidence-based marine management. This includes experience in deep-sea survey and analytical methods development\, video analyses\, species/habitat distribution modelling\, larval dispersal modelling\, biotope classification\, and vulnerable marine ecosystem definition. \nShe is currently a researcher at the Institute of Marine Research in Bergen\, Norway and working primarily on the Norwegian national mapping project\, MAREANO. \nDr Jonatan Fredricson Marquez (https://www.hi.no/en/hi/about-us/employees/jonatan-fredricson-marquez) \nJonatan is a marine biologist who specializes in spatial analyses and mapping. His current work focuses on developing different types of maps of the marine benthos to aid management and conservation strategies\, such as maps of habitat\, biotopes\, or other management units. He is familiar with a range of mapping techniques from regressive and multivariate models to machine learning models. \nHe currently works as a researcher in the benthic communities research group at the Norwegian Institute of Marine Research where he is involved in the MAREANO project\, as well as other projects related to nature accounting\, natur-i-norge\, and regional benthic mapping. \nPREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE \nMust have some working knowledge of R software environment. \nMORE INFORMATION AND REGISTRATION\n\nA maximum of 20 participants will be selected for the workshop\, considering their motivation and the potential impact of the workshop in their careers.\nThe registration deadline is October 31\, 2025.\nIf you have any doubts please contact: twindeeps@ciimar.up.pt
