Published articles in 1A or 1B that have been “repackaged” as book chapters may count as distinct artifacts in Part 1B only. For any artifact or activity, only one “additional points” item may apply; e.g., an article may receive additional points for being published in a Tier 1 outlet, but no additional points may be awarded for sole or first authorship. For all artifacts, the candidate for promotion is responsible for providing evidence of quality and/or impact. Works in press or accepted for publication but not yet published will not be included in the artifacts above. Works published as “online-first” versions (prior to a print version) may be included. Candidates should show sustained and continual scholarly productivity. Artifacts included in Part 1A must meet standards of quality and/or substance as defined by consensus among members of the Department Personnel Committee. These standards include such criteria as originality, seriousness/importance/impact of the scholarship, scope, execution, creativity, methodological rigor, and intellectual sophistication. Ultimately, the judgments of the department personnel committee members will be important in evaluating all publications. Examples of items not included in Part 1A would be brief “thought pieces,” responses to other published articles appearing in journals, tutorials, job-aids, lesson plans, or computer software not identified by publication code or indexed as a peer-reviewed product. “Recognized” is defined as at least one of the following: indexed in the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) or another major citation index; formally associated with an international, national, or regional educational association or an association from a related discipline; or established as recognized by the Department Personnel Committee. A “Tier 1” outlet is defined as an outlet that meets at least two of the following criteria: a flagship outlet of an education or related discipline;
