This course is focused on sharing the findings from your teaching-as-research (TAR) project with a broader audience in the form of published scholarship. This 5-part, self-paced online course guides participants through pitching your work, finding academic journals and other outlets to publish in, knowing your audience, and how publication can support your academic career goals. By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Determine the best publishing outlet for your teaching-as-research project
- Start a plan to get you to publication

About CIRTL Programming
CIRTL Network programming is designed to develop future faculty committed to implementing and advancing evidence-based teaching practices to create undergraduate educational experiences that are accessible to all learners. Participants can explore our programming in any order, and to whatever extent supports your own teaching development needs and interests. To help participants understand what they can expect across all our programming, all CIRTL programming aligns with four broad learning goals; within those goals, programming might provide participants with an introductory, intermediate, or advanced learning experience.
This course supports the following CIRTL learning goals at an advanced level:
- Goal 3: Cultivate teaching skills through reflective improvement. See more Goal 3 programming.
- Goal 4: Prepare for an impactful career. See more Goal 4 programming.
