New Authors Wanted for SOCIAL ISSUES Blog

[Leonard Waks]

At our workshop in March the participants strongly urged the commissioners to enlist a group of committed authors for the SOCIAL ISSUES blog, and create a steady supply of appropriate posts for other JDS members to reply to and use in their classes.

I am now actively inviting individual members of JDS to join SOCIAL ISSUES as authors. If anyone wishes to join the board of authors, please let me know. I'll send you my ideas about what you might do as an author, and sign you up. If you need any support in figuring out how to use the blogger format, let me know and I'll hand hold you through the process.

You will find the minutes of the workshop attached.

Every researcher has heard the phrase “publish or perish” - but what if you’re not quite ready to hit those high impact journals with your master work? Then get some practice in, writing about a research related topic for the new venture - Arthur Online. As well as honing your critical skills, this is a chance to try writing for a general audience, rather than a scholarly journal, which will do you no harm at all if you fancy a career outside academia, particularly in a media or communications role.
