Exploring Academic Publications in English Literature

Dr. Danial delivered a presentation on academic publications in English literature.
The English Literature Study Program held an event themed "A to Z about Academic Publications in English Literature" on Saturday, September 30, 2023, at the Theatrical Room, Faculty of Adab and Cultural Sciences, UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta. The event took place from 08:00 to 12:00 WIB.
After being opened by MC Aini Safitri, the presentation session by speaker Dr. Danial Hidayatullah, M.Hum began. The speaker delivered the material in the first session, which discussed writing and publishing journals from start to finish. After introducing academic publications, including the differences between journals and theses, the material continued with information about SINTA. SINTA is an indexing portal for journals managed by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture and is a database for nationally accredited journals by Arjuna. After the presentation of the material, the session continued with a discussion.
At the beginning of the discussion session, the speaker provided information about English Literature students from the class of 2020 who have successfully published journals. Among them are Natasya Lawrencia, Dendri Endrian Ramadhan, and Faqih, who were also present at the event. All three of them focus on literary studies. Next, the three of them were asked by the speaker to discuss the journals they researched, starting from finding research objects, selecting topics, writing processes, and publication, and providing information about several journal publication institutions.
The last session was a question and answer session that received a positive response from the participants. In this session, Dr. Danial explained that two students from the same institution or university are not allowed to submit journals to the same journal publication institution because there is a risk that one of the journals will be rejected. The speaker also suggested that participants, all of whom are from the class of 2021, start making a list of journal publication institutions as early as possible to avoid problems with submitting several journals to the same journal publication institution.
The event went smoothly and was concluded with a closing remark by the Head of the English Literature Study Program, Ulyati Retno Sari, M.Hum.
