| Abstract: |
University faculty are expected to engage in a variety of tasks, with a specific focus on teaching, scholarship, and service (Mamiseishvili et al., 2016). The importance placed on each of these three pillars of academia differs based on the type of institute of higher education (IHE) in which one works. However, all three pillars are vital for success, including the goal of achieving promotion and tenure. More recently, an increased emphasis has been placed on scholarship at both research and teaching-focused universities (Schimanski & Alperin, 2018). Although academic faculty know they must engage in scholarship, including conducting, publishing, and presenting research, some early career faculty might be unprepared to do so. In this article, we offer recommendations to support faculty at more traditional teaching universities in achieving their goals for scholarly work. We propose the acronym VOICE: (a) be Visible, (b) seek out Opportunities, (c) have an Intellectual attitude toward growing your skills, (d) consider how you can Contribute to the field, and (e) be Earnest in your desire to create high quality academic scholarship.
