Keywords:
writing, publishing, peer review, educationAbstract
In this paper, I discuss the process of developing a piece of writing for publication. Written for an intended audience of graduate students in the field of education, I discuss writing for publication as an arrangement for significance, the question of finding a discursive and intellectual home, the selection of an appropriate journal in which to publish, the importance of spaces and rituals of writing, and the conversational dynamics of peer review.
ERRER À LA FRONTIÈRE DU MALAISE: PENSÉES ET CONSEILS POUR LES ÉTUDIANTS GRADUÉS HÉSITANT À ÉCRIRE DANS LE BUT DE PUBLIER
Dans cet article, j’aborde le processus de production d’un texte dans le but d’être publié. M’adressant aux étudiants gradués dans le domaine de l’éducation, je parle de la publication en tant qu’élaboration d’un message, de la recherche d’une famille discursive et intellectuelle, de la sélection d’une revue dans laquelle publier, de l’importance de l’espace et des rituels de la rédaction et des dynamiques conversationnelles de l’évaluation par les pairs.
