Editing jobs have been changing at an ever-increasing pace, both because of technology and because of the changing nature of the workplace. A majority of ACES members no longer work at newspapers; instead, they edit across a variety of disciplines and on a variety of platforms. In this session, two editors-turned-editing professors will share research on how both professionals and academics view editing skills today. They'll also provide resources for editors wanting to master new skills and polish traditional ones, plus a few hands-on exercises that can be used in a classroom or a workplace.
