Get
Involved...IARSLCE Publications Committee
IARSLCE is committed to member involvement. As such,
we would like to highlight one way that members can join in
on the association's activities. Lina Dostilio and Andy Furco, chairs
of
IARSLCE's Publications and Scholarship
Committee, invite you to shape the field's research agenda by
joining IARSLCE's Publications and Scholarship Committee.
As an international
research association, IARSLCE is committed to producing and disseminating
high value publications that can inform and advance the field.
Since its establishment, IARSLCE has produced an annual peer-reviewed
publication as part of the Advances in Service-Learning Research Series.
In addition, IARSLCE has published a series of conferences
proceedings that highlight the sessions presented at the annual
conference.
In 2012, in response to
feedback from association members, who asked for a more robust and
expansive journal, IARSLCE transitioned its annual, online, peer-reviewed
publication to the International Journal for Research on Service-Learning
and Community Engagement (IJRSLCE).
Today, we are working on
the third volume of this journal, which is reaching a wider international
audience and disseminating some of the field's most cutting research
analyses. In addition, we are working on securing the journal's
inclusion in the international scientific journal ranking systems. The
journal is available for free to all IARSLCE members and is available for
purchase for individuals and groups not affiliated with the
association. As an IARSLCE member, you can access the first two
volumes of the journal can be found here.
We
invite you to shape the future of this journal and the broader
scholarship agenda of IARSLCE by joining the association's Publications
and Scholarship Committee.
This committee is
composed of IARSLCE members and is co-chaired by two IARSLCE board
members. In 2015, the Committee will address several important
issues to advance our field's research and scholarship, including the
following:
1) Securing a broader
international scope and reach and of the Association's publications;
2) Developing strategies
to track the impact of the Association's journal on its members and the
broader field;
3) Devising paths
for the greater involvement of participation of IARSLCE members in
ensuring to the Association's publications as authors and
peer-reviewers; and
4) Identifying new
pathways for advancing the dissemination of high quality service-learning
and community engagement research and scholarship
The committee meets
quarterly using an online meeting platform (GoToMeeting), and holds an
in-person meeting at the annual conference for those committee members
who are present.
If you are interested in joining
this committee or have any questions about its work, please contact us. Our first meeting of 2015 will be
held in mid-January. We look forward to hearing from you.
