Vietnam aspires to have a tier of research-intensive universities, including some that will soon attain "world-class" status. This goal is ambitious and will require, amongst other things, a significantly increased level of commitment to the development of discipline-based research cultures at the universities concerned. This paper…

While research has emphasized the importance of a diverse faculty, higher education has done little to bring this goal to fruition. The hidden politics at play during the traditional tenure and promotion process represent a significant obstacle to the advancement of Black faculty. While research productivity is the cornerstone of a successful…

As the title suggests, this article shows how the authors took teaching-related ideas and developed them -- through the steps of drafting, review, and revising -- into published articles. Using examples of the steps involved, the authors explore options for how others in the field of English teaching might productively write for publication as…

This article describes the learning and teaching approach taken within a Masters level specialism in Literacy Education within the context of learning some basics of undertaking qualitative investigation.
