Publishing opportunities
The PIL Unit offers publishing opportunities for anybody at the University who writes about teaching and learning in higher education. We want to support the sharing of interesting analyses of various educational practices around the University and stimulate the collective dialogue about teaching and learning.
The texts should be relevant for a broad audience of university teachers. The PIL Unit's editorial committee give editorial feedback before publication.
The PIL Unit offers two channels for publishing: a broader publishing arena for different kinds of texts on teaching and learning in higher education, and a writing series.
The texts will be reviewed by PIL's editorial committee, but this review is not to be regarded as a referee review. However, texts that are published in one of PIL's channels may also be published in refereed journals.
Texts on Teaching and Learning in Higher Education
The Texts on Teaching and Learning in Higher Education may be essays, articles, papers etc. The texts should be able to contribute to discussions on education and educational issues. Through these discussions, the ideas, thoughts and experiences expressed in the texts will hopefully spread across the University.
The texts can be written and published in either English or Swedish. They are published on the PIL website:
