Publications

In the Publications section, you are able to upload up to ten peer-reviewed publications that show your qualifications for this project. Only publications that have been added to your Intellectual Contributions/Publications can be selected from the drop-down menu.

 (Figure 1).

Figure1:

If others have created Intellectual Contribution records for publications you worked on and have linked these records to your account, these publications will NOT be available for selection from the drop-down list.

If you would like to include one or more of these linked publications in your report, select the Linked Records checkbox. This will include an Appendix section at the bottom of your report listing all Intellectual Contribution records you are linked to. You can then copy and paste the relevant citations into the body of the report (in Microsoft Word). Remove the rest of the appendix before submitting the form.

In this section, briefly describe up to five Synergistic Activities that demonstrate the broader impact of the individual’s professional and scholarly activities that focus on the integration and transfer of knowledge, as well as its creation.

Examples: Innovations in teaching and training (e.g., development of curricular materials and pedagogical methods); contributions to the science of learning; development and/or refinement of research tools; computation methodologies, and algorithms for problem-solving; development of databases to support research and education; broadening the participation of groups underrepresented in STEM; and service to the scientific and engineering community outside of the individual’s immediate organization.

Only publications that have been added to your Intellectual Contributions/Publications can be selected from the drop-down menu.

If you want to add an activity that isn’t in your Intellectual Contributions/Publications (such as an award or extracurricular activity), describe it briefly in the Other Activity textbox provided, or copy the link from your Linked Records appendix.
