Abstract
It is my belief that student research papers can and should find authentic audiences. This is why I require my students to conduct social discovery. During their writing process, they reach out to a variety of types of individuals to obtain social proof for their developing ideas. As they formalize their research, they target specific presentation or publication venues. When my students submit their final papers to me, they are required to document the process of their paper's development and to indicate they have submitted their paper to one of those venues.
