1. Publishing Your Work Not a Question, But rather an Execution Who? Why? When? Where? How? รัตติกร ยิ้มนิรัญ สาขาวิชาฟิสิกส์ สำนักวิชา วิทยาศาสตร์ มหาวิทยาลัยเทคโนโลยีสุรนารี

2. Who Should Publish? ! Everyone ! Faculty Members, Researchers and Students

3. Who in Thailand are publishing?

6. What about at SUT?

9. How could these people publish so many articles? Mostly through collaborations and team effort!

10. How could these people publish so many articles? If it is not a miracle (it is not really), what are their secrets of success and recipes? Let’s make a simple analysis! (my personal view in Top Scientists Document)

11. Why publish? To let everyone else know what you have done and to give other people a chance to help you improve quality of your work

12. Why? Faculty Members Researchers Moving Your Academic Rank Up Grant Requirement More Grants

13. Why? Graduate Students Practicing Yourselves Graduation Requirements Build Up Your CV Future Grant Applications (Thailand Research Fund)

14. Importance of Publications & Tactic Adapted from Prof. Dr. Sukit Limpijumnong School of Physics, Institute of Science Suranaree University of Technology - How to select journal - Author & Reviewer Communications

15. Why we need to publish? - To communicate with other researchers - Record keeping of the knowledge obtained - Let others check/evaluate the results - For other to learn what has been known - Prevent redundant work - For personal promotion ?

16. When?ASAP How do you know? What are required? It COULD take up to 1 year to be accepted Graduation?

17. Where? Requirements for graduation? Thai Journals Conference Proceedings International Journals

18. Where? Conference Proceedings Peer Reviews? Thai Journals TCI Impact Factors/TRF Approved International Journals ISI Impact Factors

19. Why international journal? - Broader audience - In English, accessible to all audience - Has more strict criteria/better referee process - More experts accessing - Generally has a forum for comment/response

20. How to select a journal? (where to publish) How journals are rated? How to rate an individual article? How to rate a person publication record?

21. How journals are rated? “ The most popular index is Journal Impact Factor (JIF) ” Let’s talk a bit about JIF ISI Journal Citation Reports http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journal_impact_fact or

22. - JIF indicate how good the journal is - The higher JIF the better (exponentially better!) - Roughly the JIF value is the number of time an average article in the journal get cited per year - Cannot compare JIF between journal from different fields! - Of course, the higher the JIF, the more difficult to publish in that journal - Getting accepted in high JIF journal does not necessarily mean the work is good

23. How to rate an individual article? “ A quick way (but not the best) is looking at the journal the article published in. ” “ A better way is checking how many times the article is cited by others. ” However, this takes time. The article has to be published at least two years.

24. How to check? The most accurate resource is an international database such as “Sci. Citation Index”. “ http://scholar.google.com ”http://scholar.google.com In complete, but free!

25. How to rate a person publication record “ Again, a quick way is by looking at the journal the articles are published in. (some time the avg. JIF is used)” “ A better way is by looking at the lifetime citation record. Recently, another simple yet effective way is invented Hirsch’s h-index.” Publish or Perish

26. Hirsch’s index (h-index) Hirsch writes: “A scientist has index h if h of his N p papers have at least h citations each, and the other (N p - h) papers have at most h citations each.” “ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirsch_number ” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirsch_number

27. Hirsch’s index (h-index)

28. - Find the journal that the specific topic of your work are generally published - Compare your work with average work published in the journal Read, read, and read! How to select a journal? (where to publish) Know the quality of your own work!

29. Tactics - Prepare a neat and error-free manuscript. - Draw clear with full detailed figures (show that you are dedicated). - Let friends read the manuscript and take comments for revising before submission. - Prepare an easy to read and (a little bit overselling) justification paragraph. - When reply to the referees, use professional and as polite as possible language. - Try to comply as much as possible with the comments.

30. Review process! Submit Editor Authors Justification (1 paragraph) Reject Referees Comments Reply Proof Editor Publish
