一、第十七讲题目:以研带教、教研相长——国际学术刊物教学研究论文的发表
There is an obviously unnecessary division between the two camps of researchers in Chinese research communities. Pure or theoretical researchers and practical or pedagogical researchers are given different social statuses in most institutions of higher education in China. I argue that this mentality has created a boundary that prevents knowledge production, and as a result is not conducive to improving student learning. Instead, I would assume that researching teaching to inform pedagogies for improving student learning is an important agenda in universities’ mission statements. The key point is to get this body of research published in international journals or other platforms so that researchers who share similar interest in the West can echo what has been done in Chinese universities. Nonetheless, writing is a challenge facing many emergent scholars. The challenge is exacerbated for non-native English-speaking writers, who, on the one hand, have to juggle linguistic demands, and on the other hand, consider the logical organisation for expressing the intended meanings coherently. Issues germane to such a challenge probably relate to non-native English-speaking writers’ lack of genre awareness, discourse knowledge, rhetorical disparities, and any other minor but significant aspects that affect reader-reviewer-editor judgement about the quality of the work presented in a submitted manuscript. Such a challenge, in all likelihood, is greater for Chinese scholars who have limited access to international journals to which they can potentially contribute their pedagogical research articles. Come and join Dr Zhang in this seminar, where he will share his personal experience as co-editor of TESOL Quarterly (SSCI), an editorial board member of several leading journals, The Applied Linguistics Review (SSCI), Journal of Second Language Writing (SSCI), System (SSCI), Metacognition and Learning (SSCI), and a reviewer for a number of eminent journals such as Language Learning, Applied Linguistics, The Modern Language Journal, Language Teaching Research, and Assessing Writing. He will present an overview of a range of journals for possible publications and share strategies for success. A Q&A segment will follow, which will allow audience to interact with the speaker.
