In this next segment of the co-authoring series, I address common thoughts and problems academics have when writing with students. Working with students is a learning process, a part of the professorship that no one teaches you how to do. The guidelines for co-authoring with students are the same as for co-authoring with colleagues. The main difference is the teaching and mentorship elements, which can complicate the project. Co-authoring with mentees or students offers many opportunities but also comes with many challenges. In this episode, I review the top reasons academics say co-authoring with students slows their pipeline. I advise navigating these obstacles to create a positive experience for you and your students. I also outline the importance of teaching how to write an article. If you are co-authoring with a student and frustrated with the project, this episode is for you!  For full show notes visit scholarsvoice.org/podcast/230.   CONTINUE THE CONVERSATION: Our 12-week Navigate: Your Writing Roadmap® program helps tenure-track womxn and nonbinary professors to publish their backlog of papers so that their voice can have the impact they know is possible.
