Using the Futures Cone in Doctoral Supervision

Tucker, Jason LU (2023) In Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education 4(2).
Abstract
This article is a reflection piece on the use of the futures cone and an expanded futures cone (which draws on queer theory) as a tool for dialogue and planning between the supervisor and the doctoral student. I do so by situating the use of this tool in relation to three supervision typologies: the product-orientated,process-orientatedand doctoral student-orientated approaches. I claim that it is an underused and highly versatile tool for doctoral supervision.
Abstract (Swedish)
I denna artikel reflekterar jag över användandet av futures cone och expanded futures cone (hämtade ur queer-teori) som verktyg för dialog och planering mellan handledare och doktorand. Detta görs genom att relatera verktyget till tre typer av handledning: ett produktorienterat, ett processorienterat och ett doktorandorienterat förhållningssätt. Jag hävdar att det är ett underanvänt och mångsidigt verktyg för doktorandhandledning.
