Description
Summary:Research and publication are the hallmarks of scholarship. They provide the evidence to inform our decision-making regarding the provision of a high-quality learning experience. However, in many institutions the proportion of academic staff who are regarded as research active - and publishing accounts of their work - is less than desirable. This article suggests that a Ladder of Publication may provide a framework by which emergent scholars can progress from modest documents, shared with colleagues in a safe environment, to authoritive peer- reviewed publications. The challenge is to support colleagues in the process of conducting the research and progressing with this to publication.First publication: http://www.asianjde.org/2003v1.1.Lockwood.pdf
