Abstract:
A preprint is a version of a scholarly or scientific paper that precedes formal peer review and publication. Preprints are typically made available open-access through dedicated preprint servers such as EdArXiv. In this talk, Emily will explain how and why academics (and in particular teaching-focused academics) should consider disseminating their work through preprints and discuss common questions and concerns. She will also talk about how preprints can be used by teachers and students, both to gain access to research and as an educational tool to help teach students about the process of science.
