Summary

How are some scholars so productive, publishing hundreds of powerful works over their careers? To find out, author Kenneth Kiewra interviewed nearly three dozen productive scholars in his field of educational psychology. Kiewra introduces these and other productive scholars whose productivity stories are chronicled throughout the book. Kiewra also draws from his own productive scholar career, where his pioneering research on note taking, the SOAR Teaching and Learning Method, and talent development have made him a Top 2% Most-Cited Researcher Worldwide. You’ll learn in the Introduction that there are several well-trodden paths to scholarly productivity but that these pathways are rarely revealed to budding or even seasoned scholars looking to find their way. This is the “hidden curriculum” in academia, the insider knowledge needed to succeed and flourish as an academic scholar, the insider knowledge that can help emerging and seasoned scholars alike avoid dead-end missteps and years’ worth of wasted time. Be a More Productive Scholar reveals the hidden curriculum, a trail map including more than a hundred productive scholar tips your doctoral advisor and senior colleagues never told you or might not even know.
