Writing educational resources for publication: how and why?  

Dr Gillian Lazar, Department of Education, Middlesex University 

In this seminar Dr Gillian Lazar will reflect on her experiences of writing educational resources over several decades. Gillian will share some of the practical lessons learned about writing for publication, such as meeting the demands of publishers while incorporating one’s own educational vision in the resources. She will also reflect on the creative production of educational resources as an act of scholarship and discuss how this can help to deepen one’s understanding of practice. The session will be of interest to those exploring how to write resources as part of their own career development, and to anyone interested in expanding our appreciation of scholarship for education professionals in higher education.
