Editing is structured around the written word and the ability to revise and refine it. When coupled with higher-education, positions like editorial research assistantships create a transformative learning experience opportunity through which editors can improve their skills and expand their academic interests outside of their field of study while working in a professional environment. This research examines the unique opportunities provided to editorial research assistants, as well as how these opportunities promote higher-level thinking. The transformative learning elements of this assistantship challenges the editor's ability to analyze, research, and communicate with professionals across multiple fields of study.
