Self-Sabotage in the Academic Career Pogo recognized long ago that we often are our own worst enemies. Sure, he was a cartoon character, but he had a point—especially in higher education, where self-sabotage seems to be a standard characteristic of academic careers. In my 30 years as a professor, five years as a dean, and three years as a provost, I have observed many academics harm their own careers, often without realizing it. Here are 15 ways in which you can be most self-destructive. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. Robert J.

Best Educational Sites Lit Review 1 The Internet TESL Journal Roberto Criollorcriollo [at] hotmail.comBenemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (Puebla, Pue., Mexico) This paper presents an application of Genre Analysis on academic writing instruction. More specifically, techniques and steps for enabling ESF/EFL learners to organize and develop literature reviews are presented and explained.

Women Artists Essay - Linda Nochlin Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists? by LINDA NOCHLIN While the recent upsurge of feminist activity in this country has indeed been a liberating one, its force has been chiefly emotional--personal, psychological, and subjective--centered, like the other radical movements to which it is related, on the present and its immediate needs, rather than on historical analysis of the basic intellectual issues which the feminist attack on the status quo automatically raises. Like any revolution. however, the feminist one ultimately must come to grips with the intellectual and ideological basis of the various intellectual or scholarly disciplines--history, philosophy, sociology, psychology, etc. In the field of art history, the white Western male viewpoint, unconsciously accepted as the viewpoint of the art historian, may--and does--prove to be inadequate not merely on moral and ethical grounds, or because it is elitist, but on purely intellectual ones.

Study skills 1 For teachers of writing-intensive classes From assessment studies conducted by The University of Hawai‘i Mānoa Writing Program Writing & Research Students in our assessment studies tell us that some of their most positive learning experiences involve writing and research. This is what students tell us they like about research projects: Meeting the challenge of becoming an "expert" on a topic.Searching for answers to real questions.Being surprised by the depth of information and quantity of materials they uncover.Working with guidance from experienced researchers--a special opportunity at UH Mānoa. Research strategies students learned in high school are often inadequate to college tasks. Underclassmen typically apply a research procedure they learned in high school: select a topic (often broad and "safe"); check out books from a library; make notes on index cards; organize the information in an outline; and write a report from the note cards and outline.
