What kind of text is the academic article? What work does it do in disciplinary communities? What are editors and reviewers looking for when they read manuscripts submitted for publication? How can you increase chances of publication? If you have thought about these questions, please join this session. Dr. Large will talk about the importance of selecting the “right” journal for your article and the steps that you might need to take for publication. He will also give you an insight into how journal editors handle your manuscripts. Dr. Paré will briefly describe what he, as a journal editor and academic author, sees as the essential qualities of a good article and explain why those qualities are important to disciplinary communities. Lastly Dr. Asghar will give you tips for converting course papers, theses, or projects into journal articles and share strategies that graduate students can use in writing and publishing their work.
