As long as the majorityof papers report on a single intervention or single institution, with little reference to what otherinstitutions are doing, coherence in the scholarly conversation will be an elusive goal. The “one-off,” as we might call it, creates a publishable unit but gains significance for the broaderscholarly community only when it is integrated into a larger pattern of practice and assessment.To identify areas for potentially strategic action, we focused papers that either demonstrated orsuggested potentially more impactful ways of organizing research and publishing oncommunication in engineering.
