Reflections on Scholarship: Publishing and Peer Reviewing for the Journal of Scholarly Engagement

by Thomas D. Dyer, John P. Steele, and Jenny Kuban

Presented by the Editor-In-Chief and Associate Editor of The Journal of Scholarly Engagement this workshop is intended for scholars who are interested in either submitting a manuscript to the JSE ore serving on the peer review board and will be helpful whether authors are initiating the research design or putting the finishing touches on a manuscript for possible submission. Four main questions will be addressed: 1) What makes a manuscript a “good fit” for JSE? 2) What research methodologies can be used to design studies appropriate to JSE? 3) What steps can be taken to prepare a manuscript for review? 4) What is the process to serve on the peer review board for JSE?
