The Meducator!

Posted 6 days ago by Soc Sci Guy | Respond to this post »

The Meducator is McMaster University’s undergraduate health sciences journal, and publishes a variety of pieces in many subject areas, including biochemistry, biomedical sciences, clinical sciences, global health, health policy, and health ethics. Since its inception 10 years ago, it has provided undergraduate students with a unique platform in which to publish their research. In biyearly issues, we print articles written by students that undergo a rigorous peer-editing process by The Meducator editorial board, and by experts (such as PhDs and MDs) in the field.

They are currently in the process of recruiting a new Creative Director for their Graphic Design and Layout team for the upcoming academic year (2012-2013).  

The deadline for submitting the Creative Director application is Thursday May 24th at 11:59pm. Applicants should send their completed applications to: the.meducator@learnlink.mcmaster.ca.

Finally, another important way in which students can become involved with The Meducator is by writing for them. The Meducatorfeatures Research Insight articles, which showcase original research that students are involved in, as well as Critical Reviewarticles that analyze or discuss a particular issue in the health sciences field. Guidelines for how to write articles in either format are available on their website (www.meducator.org), under “Submission Guidelines and Policies”.

Posted 60 days ago by Soc Sci Guy | Respond to this post »

All libraries at McMaster are undergoing an official review.  There will be two open meetings where students are STRONGLY encouraged to attend/drop in and make their opinions known about how the libraries are!  Do you think they have enough resources?  Are there enough work spaces?  Are the hours inconvenient?  This is a great opportunity to speak up!
The meetings are in Convocation Hall and are:

Monday, March 26th – 4:30 -5:30pm
Tuesday, March 27th – noon-1pm.

MSU Course Evaluations

Posted 61 days ago by Soc Sci Guy | Respond to this post »

Have you ever been stressed about selecting courses for the next semester or the next year? Do you sift through the calendar descriptions and ask your friends if the professor will match your learning style? With these new course evaluations provided by the MSU, you, the student will be able to share your past classroom experiences with your fellow students and access what others have said about the courses you’re contemplating enrolling in. These course evaluations target the areas of the learning experience you care about and then the MSU will release the results during course selection time so students have access to each-others feedback. Go ahead and join the conversation!
