Student writing weekends: A model for encouraging undergraduate student publication

Abstract

"Research should be alive and shared, it should lead to something. Publishing research outputs in scholarly journals will continue to have value if these outputs add to our knowledge and thereby move the field ahead. Rather than relying on published works as the final evidence of impact, professors should be challenged to develop agency for passing on what they know to the next generation of scholars" (Meyer, 2012, p. 216).
