2.016 - PDC08: How to Get Published: Guidance from Emerging and Established Scholars

Thu, April 4, 9:00am to 5:00pm, Metro Toronto Convention Centre, Floor: 700 Level, Room 713A

Session Type: Professional Development Course

Abstract

"This course will provide graduate students and early career faculty with critical information about how to publish. The course will begin with an overview of the nuts and bolts of academic publishing by Dr. Patricia Alexander. Following this, scholars will present detailed sessions that cover the entire publishing process – from conceptualizing studies to preparing well-crafted manuscripts targeted to relevant journals. More specifically, sessions led by top scholars will cover: institutional and career fit, how to be a productive writer, finding equilibrium in academia, contemporary publishing topics and how to select appropriate journals, quality quantitative research, quality qualitative research, and ethical issues in publishing. Question and answer sessions will follow each presentation to allow workshop participants to interact with the scholars about the topics presented. Further, at the end of the day there will be a final presentation by Dr. Alexander and Dr. Schallert that addresses any lingering questions and concerns. Each participant will be provided with materials including handouts and work samples that elaborate the important points shared during the session."
