  1. Many academic papers could be half as long—or less. But we write them to be self-contained and accessible to a broad scholarly audience, so we repeat background, define well-known terms, pad the argument just to be safe. And then publishers restrict the number of footnotes.

    In an ideal world, a paper would be short, dense, even cryptic—and followed by a massive apparatus of notes explaining context, terminology, prior work, alternatives. Instead, we do the opposite: long main text, minimal notes

  6. I've just been gratefully reminded that academic writing can be an act of love, justice, and care, as well as "the very essence of what it means to be human" (p. 265).

  11. I🧡Laurel Richardson's approach to academic writing generally and this, specifically, because of the focus on writer agency, choice, & the complexities of referring to the 'world' (or REALITY).

  20. Am working with a PhDer keen to create a visual/sensorial #thesis investigating the aesthetics of Pentecostal imagery (Religious Studies). Their supervisors aren't 'keen'.

    Any examples/advice I can share with them?

  25. @kfnagle
    Thanks re #Checklists. Part of me totally agrees.

    a) I have been part of checklist developments and tried to be against items like "strengths", "definite conclusions", "innovation" etc. I have been & am usually overruled. I personally think they should not be part of such lists as they do not increase the quality of reporting.

    b) Should we slowly move into a world where it would be fine to write "For reasons x, y, z, "innovation was not the point of the project"? ☺️

  29. Another #PeerReview finished.

    Paper ~ 5000 words
    Review ~ 1700 words
    Duration ~ 1.75 hours

    I recently had a discussion with an editorial board whether reporting #checklists should be mandatory. The board suggested that this would limit creativity and openness.

    Most checklists only say what should be minimally reported and are rarely otherwise normative.

    It would have helped this manuscript, so that I would have understood what the authors had done.

  33. Hello @annamills, thank you for your work on #AI literacies, pedagogies, and awareness raising. It's helping me, at least, raise awareness within my own academic writing contexts.

    While waiting for #PeerReview and editorial decision, you could maybe read the last RR we published about the impact of the #COVID19 pandemic on adolescent #mentalhealth

  41. The "Reviewer's guide to #QuantitativeMethods" provides a concise summary of what to learn about and how to plan & report studies employing 31 (2nd ed. apparently 35) methods: routledge.com/The-Reviewers-Gu

    Since it is a book, it will be difficult for many to get access. Does anyone know whether at least the checklists have been published somewhere #OpenAccess?

    And is there a #QualitativeMethods version?

    Please boost, if you can, as I am hoping to reach #interdisciplinary voices & approaches to this, especially from the so-called #GlobalSouth, namely communities that don't seem to be getting much of a look-in right now on this 'western' concocted concern.
