Abstract
This article describes one academic’s approach to creating a research community among a diverse group of higher degree students within an individualistic research culture.
The approach is characterised by acceptance of a wide range of interests and methodologies, attention to the relational and emotional needs of students, the collaborative sharing of information, ideas and problems, and a recognition that imagination and intuition are essential elements of a meaningful scientific investigation. Particular techniques for facilitating this process are described.
