Share Your Classroom Experiences: Publish in Accounting Education Journals

(Accounting)

Description/Objectives:
This workshop provides educators interested in publishing teaching-related scholarship with practical suggestions for navigating the editorial process. As the definition of accounting scholarship broadens to include more teaching-related themes, more faculty are interested in sharing their work through publications. Although interest in publishing pedagogical work has increased, many faculty members still struggle with getting their classroom contributions into print. This session remedies this situation by addressing six questions that most often contribute to the demise of a manuscript submission:

• When is a paper properly motivated?
• What should you include in a literature review?
• What research strategies can you use?
• How do you organize and present a manuscript?
• What role do implications and conclusions play?
• How does writing quality affect the review process?

Additionally, this interactive workshop encourages participants to share questions and views on the publication process and research ideas on teaching related scholarship. This session should benefit any accounting educators who are considering publishing their classroom work in an accounting education journal.
