1. Peer Reviewed Publishing on the AUPHA Network: Achieving Scholarly Recognition for Your Educational Works Robert Hernandez, DrPH Professor University of Alabama Kristi Donovan, MS, CAE Sr Dir., Professional Affairs AUPHA

2. Background AUPHA Network est. 2009 Purpose: –To build a library of resources for teaching health administration –To identify best practices in teaching –To help health administration faculty network with colleagues

3. Building a Resource Collection Challenges: –How can we encourage faculty to submit materials? –How can faculty earn scholarly recognition for contributing? –How do we know what’s “good” and what’s not? Do we agree? –How can faculty avoid publicly giving negative feedback to published material?

4. Answering the Challenge 2010: Volunteer committee of health administration faculty (grad & undergrad) appointed to develop process for submitting, reviewing and publishing educational works 2011: Guidelines developed for submitting case studies 2012: Feedback obtained from faculty

5. Development Based on processes used by: –Society for Case Research (submission parameters) –National Center for Case Study Teaching in Science, University of Buffalo (submission parameters) –MedEd Portal by American Association of Medical Colleges (publishing standards/publishing online)

6. Case Studies Focus on case studies first –High demand for case studies –Low availability of case studies for healthcare administration education Expand to other educational materials –Assignments –Evaluations –Projects –Other identified needs

7. Case Study Submission Cases vs constructed cases –Case studies reflect real situations in actual organizations; identities may be disguised, some data altered –Constructed cases based on fictitious situations created to illustrate a concept
