This advice is offered by Sherril Gelmon and Susan Agre-Kippenhan in "Promotion, Tenure, and the Engaged Scholar: Keeping the Scholarship of Engagement in the Review Process," ( January 2002 AAHE Bulletin ).
Following this advice, I have created this site as an online portfolio that organizes much of my scholarly work in one place. Let me say right up front that this is a bit of a leap for me. The idea of registering my own name as a domain seemed less than modest, and I am still not totally comfortable with the idea, but I understand the benefits of this approach.
Essays, working papers, web sites, course outlines, shared learning objects, and other web-based scholarship are included in this site. A tendency to "think out of the box" leads me to question the value of limiting access to knowledge by claiming it as "intellectual property." Unless otherwise restricted, everything published at kenmentor.com and each of my other sites is available under the limitations of the Creative Commons license.
