Long Workshop Gateways to Developing an Identity in Writing Academic Publications: Book Reviews, Conference Reports, & Interviews more
Sat, Dec 18, 13:00-13:45 Asia/Tokyo
Educators are expected to demonstrate professional development and ongoing learning. Writing for publication and experiencing peer feedback can consolidate one’s professional knowledge and help build identity. The summary and critique in book reviews, the narration and reflection in conference reports, and the informed interaction in interviews provide initial access to an academic discourse community. This presentation looks at these three gateway publications available for all teachers to develop their identity as authors of academic publications. Workshop activities cover the structure of these genres with samples. Participants will take away a deeper understanding of writing for publication and some targets for their gateway submissions along with the added motivation to grow further through their writing within a supportive learning community.
