- Summary:
- Student affairs professionals are increasingly being called upon to become scholar practitioners, to reflect on and share their experiences to further the knowledge of the field, and to disseminate practices to promote student learning and development. Through their daily interactions with students they are often best placed to develop the grounding for theories and strategies to improve the college experience, none of which can be advanced without scholarship, without presenting and writing, and without the debate that these activities stimulate. This book offers practical guidance to anyone in the field interested in presenting at conferences or publishing in scholarly and professional journals, and sets the work of scholarly practice in the context of its vital role of influencing and shaping the future of student affairs, and in promoting continuous learning.
