Writing successfully for the Journal of Geography in Higher Education (RGS-IBG Annual International Conference 2025)
August 29 @ 11:10 am – 12:50 pm
This event is part of the RGS-IBG Annual International Conference 2025
Panel:
- Derek France, University of Chester
- Sonja Rewhorn, The Open University
- Alan Marvell, University of Gloucestershire
- Harry West, UWE, Bristol
- David Higgitt, University of Lancaster
Description:
This session is designed to encourage and enable new academics/postgraduates that have undertaken pedagogic research to get their work published and disseminated to the rest of the geographic community.
After discussing the mission of the Journal of Geography in Higher Education (JGHE), panelists will explain the submission, review, and publication processes of the JGHE. Topics will include the nature of material appropriate for submission, the types and level of evidence necessary to support findings, the recommended length of manuscripts, advice about writing for an international readership, and JGHE’s citation index.
In this practical workshop, prospective authors will interact with panelists through an interactive paper review session and to discuss issues specific to manuscripts they are planning or writing. Practical guidance and advice will be provided to potential authors. The session will end with a plenary around the demands of getting published.
It should be noted that the proposed running order of the session needs to be flexible to accommodate the needs and level of response from prospective.
