    How a supervisor acts and behaves towards a student is critical. And it can either fall on coaching and/or mentorship. Students observe their supervisors; how they question, guide, respond and so on. It will determine how they are going to do and also shape them. Especially when they themselves become supervisors.

    Ethical issues are important even for social sciences and are concerned with creating trust. while doing research consent must be sought and assurance is given that the information given herein will be treated with the utmost confidentiality. Just as in science Autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice as well as veracity, privacy and confidentiality are important issues to consider.

    Support networks provide opportunities and links for exchange and joint projects/research/writing
    Having an open mind and accepting that learning is a continuous process is one way I deal with academic jealousy
