Writing productivity strategies

Abstract

Published scholarship is a crucial expectation for faculty working in colleges and universities throughout the world. And, published scienti c literature is the way in which members of a discipline share their theories, research, and ndings to support knowledge used in practice. However, many academics identify perceived barriers to their lack of scholarly productivity. Lack of time to dedicate to writing as well as lack of experience in writing have been cited as obstacles to successful publication and scholarship. In addition, due to various forms of preparation to serve as a faculty member in nursing, some may not have had adequate education regarding the processes surrounding writing for scholarship. Therefore, many schools of nursing apply strategies such as writing groups, encouraging team writing, or other tactics to support faculty in their scholarship endeavors.
