Many of the editors at higher education publishing companies began their careers as language instructors and/or graduate teaching assistants. Crossing out words and suggesting others in an author's draft is only a small part of the content development process in college educational publishing these days. As the focus of a learning company changes from content provider to learning services developer, we'll talk about the changing responsibilities of today's "editor," what role each editor plays, the qualities that make each editor successful and the digital topics today's editors spend a lot of time thinking about these days.
