Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Many rich nations face a shortage of qualified teachers, particularly in science and mathematics. Tackling this shortage requires a better understanding of the preferences of undergraduates as they decide whether (or not) to enter the teaching profession. This talk will discuss the findings from a recent discrete choice survey experiment conducted with a large sample of UK undergraduates. This research design allows us to quantify students’ preferences for different job attributes and show how these vary by undergraduate degree subject. The results suggest a number of ways in which teaching could be made more attractive to recent graduates, and how policy could be tailored to appeal specifically to those with degree-level qualifications in science and mathematics.
