Aims & Scope

To Improve the Academy (TIA) is the flagship peer-reviewed publication of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education (POD Network). TIA, an open-access, electronic journal, is focused on faculty, graduate student and professional student, instructional, professional, and organizational development. TIA publishes two issues annually, with occasional special issues responsive to the profession and moment. To Improve the Academy publishes scholarly articles for educational developers and those interested in professional, instructional, and organizational development in higher education. The journal welcomes submissions for both practice- and research-based works that advance the field of educational development. Contributions include, for example, descriptions of novel educational development programs with evidence of effectiveness; research studies focused on programs/interventions/initiatives or the work or experiences of educational developers; narrative inquiries into educational development; theoretical or conceptual works that contribute to our understanding of educational development; commentaries on the state of the field.
