Summer School at the University of the National Education Commission, Krakow; July 2024
Date and Time: Saturday, July 6, 2024, from 12:00 AM to 4:00 PM
The aim of these two training blocks is to demonstrate that success in academia is not solely about conducting outstanding research but also about effectively showcasing your achievements. This entails a dual approach: on one hand, publishing your research findings in reputable venues, and on the other, leveraging various tools to reach both existing and potential new audiences for your publications and research.
Therefore, the sessions will cover the practical aspects of both these endeavors. The instructor will focus on how to develop a mindful publication strategy that supports the evaluation of your work and how to build a professional online presence as a researcher.
