Discussion Questions Will the outlet put you into dialogue with the intended audience (general higher education/discipline/region)? Does publishing in “top journals” in your field matter for your career progression? Are you in a hurry to get the work published? Have you considered developing a publication plan that reaches varied audiences with different forms of scholarship? Do you have the opportunity to submit a chapter to an edited collection? If so, is this a more suitable outlet for you than submitting to a refereed journal? Share:
