Designed for international scholars, junior faculty, postdocs, and advanced graduate students conducting qualitative or mixed-methods research in anthropology and related fields, this month-long mini-course provides guidelines on revising and submitting articles for peer review. Through interactive feedback exercises and detailed supplementary materials, participants learn to structure their manuscripts for balance, logic, coherence, and flow; prepare clean manuscripts for timely (re)submission; respond to peer reviewers’ comments effectively in their revisions and cover letters to editors; and adapt their work to the current publishing environment. Before the course begins, participants should select a draft of an article that they plan to (re)submit to a journal; they will share parts of the draft with a partner during the workshop exercises.
The course instructor is Dr. Jaida Samudra, a medical anthropologist with over two decades' experience editing journal articles and scholarly books in the social sciences.
