Archival Publication Authors Workshop for Engineering Educators

Turn your card (or other work) into a manuscript for journal submission!

This July, as part of the Archival Publication Authors Workshop for Engineering Educators (APA-ENG), ASEE will launch a 5-part manuscript publication workshop

Their goal: To prepare engineering faculty to craft a competitive Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) manuscript for journals and other publications. 

Plus: if you are an Engineering Unleashed card author, you're already halfway there.

Why It’s a Great Opportunity

At every stage of a faculty career, publishing in journals is key to career advancement and success – from earning promotion and tenure, to annual merit reviews, to national recognition.  

  • Are you a new faculty member? Publishing is key to earning promotion, tenure, and annual merit review.
  • Are you a junior faculty member? If you are tenure-track, to get credit for your KEEN innovations, you will need to publish in SoTL journals. If you are going up for full professor, you need to show national recognition. Journal publications are part of that package. 
  • Are you a senior faculty member? Even as a full professor, journal publications are an important part of your annual merit review and illustrate your continuing commitment to advance the field. 

APA-ENG can get you comfortable and confident with publishing in the area of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL).
