CALL FOR EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST
*Co-Editor Position for the International Journal for Academic Development*
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Co-Editor position on the
International Journal for Academic Development (IJAD). We are looking
for a Co-Editor who is from a region other than Africa, Australasia or
North America to replace the position currently held by Professor Mick
Healey.
The appointment will be for 3 years (1 July 2013 until 30 June 2016) and
the appointee will work collaboratively with the three ongoing
Co-editors, Dr David Green, Prof Brenda Leibowitz, and Dr Kathryn
Sutherland and the Associate Editors. Normally each Co-Editor chooses an
Associate Editor from the same region in consultation with the rest of
the editorial team.
Now in its eighteenth year, IJAD is the premier international journal
for academic development. Four issues of IJAD are published annually
through Taylor & Francis (http://www.tandfonline.com/ijad). The
manuscript submission and review process is managed through Taylor &
Francis's on-line system, ScholarOne.
The position is entirely voluntary, involves working to tight deadlines
and often participating in online meetings outside of normal office hours.
Applications from individuals who would like to join the team are
welcome. Expressions of interest should address the following criteria:
Essential:
1) Active scholar in academic/educational development, with a record
of publications in this area
2) Passionate about academic development in higher education and
committed to encouraging high quality academic research and publications
in the field
3) Resident in a continent not otherwise represented by a current
Co-editor (i.e. not Africa, Australasia or North America)
4) Experienced in editing and publishing and aware of issues
associated with editing an international journal
5) Excellent organisational and communication skills and
demonstrable ability to work to tight deadlines
6) Demonstrated ability to work well with others, e.g. joint
publications, grants, member of a national network, etc.
7) Willing to participate in regular Editorial Skype meetings (often
scheduled outside working hours in order to accommodate the schedules of
Co-editors from four different continents)
8) Committed to the goals of the journal's parent organisation, the
International Consortium for Educational Development (ICED):
http://icedonline.net/
9) Belongs to one of the member networks of ICED.
Desirable:
1) Familiarity with on-line manuscript management systems
2) Ability to start by 1 July 2013.
Brief written expressions of interest should: outline your reasons for
wanting to undertake the role, address the selection criteria, provide
the names of two members of the international academic development
community who are willing to be contacted as referees, and include your
current Curriculum Vitae. These must be submitted no later than Friday
19 April 2013 to the President of the Council of ICED, Professor James
Wisdom ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>).
