Hans De Wit and Phillip G. Altbach and Betty Leask, Inside Higher Ed; Addressing the Crisis in Academic Publishing
[Kip Currier: Important reading and a much-needed perspective to challenge the status quo!
I
just recently was expressing aspects of this article to an academic
colleague: For too long the dominant view of what constitutes "an
academic" has been too parochial and prescriptive.
The academy should and must expand its notions of teaching, research, and service, in order to be more truly inclusive and acknowledge diverse kinds of knowledge and humans extant in our world.]
"We must find ways to ensure that
equal respect, recognition and reward is given to excellence in
teaching, research and service by institutional leaders, governments,
publishers, university ranking and accreditation schemes."
