This webinar is designed for all colleagues, whether on an education-focused, research-focused or hybrid, career track who are themselves interested in publishing educational scholarship, who are supporting others in writing, and/or colleagues that are interested in understanding the different foci of a range of scholarship journals.
Over two decades ago, Atkinson (2001) asserted that educational scholarship, or SoTL, should aim to “transform the nature of … society toward our ideals of equality and justice” (p. 1217) while Hutchings et al (2011) suggested that “If students are to be adequately prepared … [institutions] must pay closer attention to the heart of the educational enterprise. … [SoTL] brings powerful new principles and practices … to help point the way (p. 3). However, despite such aspirations, academics trying to publish in the field of SoTL too often merely present examples of ‘good’ teaching of codified knowledge, rather than making a necessary original contribution to the knowledge of education. Concurrently, publishing educational scholarship risks not being seen as a worthwhile use of time and resources, “a fallback route to promotion for people with patchy research records” (Boshier, 2009, p.1)
We are delighted to be joined by colleagues from four key journals that we target in submitting scholarship: the British Journal of Management, Academy of Management Learning and Education (AMLE), Management Learning, Journal of Management Education.
These colleagues will examine with us such aspects as:
- What does a scholarship of education publication look like?
- What does a scholarship of education publication look like within the different journals?
- Why does educational scholarship matter?
- Top tips for successfully publishing with the different journals

Speakers
Professor Dirk Lindebaum
Dirk Lindebaum is Professor in Management and Organisation at the University of Bath School of Management (UK). He is curious about “values” as a meta-theme in his research, particularly in relation to theory building, learning/education, technology, and emotions at work. His work regularly appears in journals of international distinction, such as the Academy of Management Review, Academy of Management Learning & Education, Journal of Management Studies, Organization Studies, and Human Relations. In addition, he is the author of the book Emancipation through Emotion Regulation (Edward Elgar, 2017). Despite his theoretical pursuits, the practical relevance of his research is regularly recognized in news outlets, such as the Financial Times, New York Times, BBC Radio 5 Live, Wirtschaftswoche, Daily Mail, Independent, FORTUNE magazine, and Bloomberg Business Week. Furthermore, he has published several practitioner-focused articles in MIT Sloan Management Review, one of which has been accepted into the Honor Roll of the Responsible Research in Business and Management network as an indication that his research serves the larger good. He currently serves as the Editior-in-Chief of Academy of Management Learning and Education.
