ADULTS LEARNING

Phone: 0533 551451

Fax: 0533 854514

Editor: Christopher Feeney

Adults Learning is a monthly journal for debate, reflection, news and information across the field of adult education and training. Its readers include teachers, researchers, administrators, trainers and learners in all branches of the education system and in voluntary organizations, as well as commercial and industrial trainers.

Main Topics of Interest

The Editor is interested in publishing articles dealing with any of the issues which concern people involved in adult learning, whether practical, theoretical, or contentious. Preference will be given to articles which show an awareness of contemporary debates and controversies, and to detailed case-studies from which other practitioners can learn. Reports of conferences are also welcome, provided that they give attention to the issues raised and the discussions provoked.

Submission Guidelines

1. Articles should be between 1500 and 1700 words. As a general rule, pieces should be written in a clear, jargon-free style, with the needs of an intelligent non-specialist in mind.

2. Articles must be typed, double-spaced on one side only of A4 paper, with margins of at least 1-1/2" all around.

3. Your name and affiliation should appear at the end of the typescript of the article. A 20-word biography, noting main appointments and publications, may be appended to your article.

4. Because of the expensive nature of printing tables and diagrams, use them only when they are essential to your argument and the information they contain could not be given in prose. Where complex flow diagrams and pie charts are necessary, the author must provide them in a form ready for printing. The Editor will normally advise when this is necessary.

5. When suitable visuals (photos or drawings) are needed, authors are asked to supply black and white photographs, or line drawings in black Indian ink. Authors alone are responsible for obtaining permission to use material with copyright restriction.

6. Please keep references to a minimum. Extensive bibliographies are not appropriate for the journal. References in the text should be in the form of author and date, and listed at the end of the article. Refer to the latest edition of The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association.

7. NIACE is committed to an equal opportunities policy which it wants to see reflected in its publications. Authors are asked to avoid using language which is negative or stereotypical about women, ethnic minorities, people with special needs or learning difficulties, handicaps or disabilities, older people, etc.

8. In order to limit unauthorized copying of material from our publications, we ask authors to assign copyright to NIACE. This does not prevent authors from making further use of their own work in other publications, provided that acknowledgement is made to its appearance in Adults Learning, and it makes it easier for NIACE to take part in the copyright licensing schemes.

9. Be consistent with abbreviation, use of capitals, use of quotation marks, etc.

10. Authors will receive two complimentary copies of the issue in which their article appears.

Please provide captions. Do not tape or paper clip originals. Photos will be returned.

9. Maps, charts, and graphs should be professionally drawn and "camera-ready." Tables may be sent typed, but each should be on a separate sheet of paper, not placed in the running text. tables should be designed so that vertical rules (lines separating the columns) are not necessary. The author may wish to look at recent issues of the AHR for examples of graphs and table design. Please avoid abbreviations in graphic material; they can be confusing to the reader.

10. In the case of a new submission, the editors require 4 copies of the manuscript. in the case of a final version, please send 2 copies.

Style Issues: In-House

Refer to the latest edition of the Chicago Manual of Style.

Style Issues: Footnote Guidelines and Examples

The footnote style used by the AHR is slightly modified from standard forms recommended by the Chicago Manual of Style, 13th edn. For copy-editing, all footnotes should be numbered sequentially and printed out double-spaced at the end of the text material (Any notes to tables, charts, graphs, maps, or illustrations should not, however, be numbered as text notes but placed with the graphic matter).

You can greatly assist the copy editors by observing the following guidelines in your citations.

1. Placement of Notes. A footnote number should come at the end of a sentence or at least at the end of a clause wherever possible. Footnote numbers always follow quoted or cited material; they should not be placed after authors' names or other references preceding the cited matter.

2. Quantity of Notes. 60-80 notes are considered normal for a research article of 30 typed pages.

3. Acknowledgements. An unnumbered note, placed at either the beginning or end of the file, should contain any desired reference to previous forms of the article (a paper delivered at the annual meeting of the AHA, for example) and any acknowledgements of the assistance of colleagues or grants from foundations (including the year of the grant).

4. Latinisms. Avoid entirely.

Email: acsde@psuvm.psu.edu

Editor: Michael G. Moore, Ph.D.

The American Journal of Distance Education is published three time a year to disseminate information and act as a forum for criticism and debate about research and practice of distance education in the Americas. In distance education, learners and teachers are separated by space or time, so instruction is by means of print, electronic, or other communications media. The Journal's policy is to represent the interests of ALL sectors of education and training; therefore, the Editor invites articles from practitioners and trainers in business and industry, the armed forces, and the public schools as well as from colleges and universities.

Main Topics of Interest

The Journal's focus is on educational rather than technical issues. The Journal is concerned with such subjects as the following: the effects of distance on learning; history, theory, and social rationale for distance education; psychological and social characteristics of those who learn at a distance; analysis of learning styles; various ways in which teaching programs are designed by different institutions; experimental and innovative teaching by the various communications media; student support and counseling; evaluation of the effectiveness of particular programs in achieving learning objectives; and design and management of distance education organizations: national, state, and local policy issues.

While articles are welcome from overseas, the primary focus of the Journal is on developments in the United States and elsewhere in the Western Hemisphere. Foreign articles should address questions and concerns of this readership.

Submission Guidelines

The Editor is always pleased to receive manuscripts for consideration. Submissions are accepted with the understanding that they will be subject to review and editorial revision, that they neither have nor will be published elsewhere, and that copyright will be assigned to The American Journal of Distance Education. All manuscripts, materials, and letters of inquiry should be sent to the above address.

Follow these guidelines when preparing a manuscript:

1. A disk copy must be submitted with the manuscript. We prefer Macintosh-formatted disks, but will accept articles submitted on IBM WordPerfect or Microsoft Word. We request that formatting be kept to a minimum. Articles may also be submitted through Bitnet.

2. All copy, including notes and references, should be typewritten, double-spaced, in English.

3. The first paragraph of the manuscript should not be indented. Subsequent paragraphs should be indented five spaces from the left.

4. A minimum of one-inch margins all around should be used.

5. A minimum of one-inch margins all around should be used.

6. The title should appear at the top of the first page, and all pages should be numbered.

7. The length should not exceed three to four thousand words, including captions, bylines, notes, and references.

8. Photographs, figures, and illustrations should only be used if

they are essential to explaining or supporting the manuscript.

If used, such materials must be original black and white

representations or quality halftone reproductions. Indicate clearly in the text where the table, figure, or illustration should be inserted, and follow the procedures in The Chicago Manual of Style.

10. A separate cover page must be enclosed with the manuscript, including the following:

* the main author's name, address, and phone number (and BITNET address, is available)

* the names and addresses of all other authors

* a brief statement title, department, and institution on each author

* an abstract of 150 words or less

11. Three clean, legible copies of the manuscript should be submitted. Illegible or single-spaced copies may be returned to the author for correction prior to review. Authors should keep a copy of their manuscripts and other materials since they will not be returned.

12. The author(s) must NOT be identified in the manuscript (first page, headers, footers, etc.), so our referees may be given "blind" copies of the manuscript.

Style Issues: General

Style Issues: In-House

The Chicago Manual of Style should be used as a guide for manuscript style, especially for matters such as quotations, references, reference lists, punctuation, style, and grammar. If the manual is not available, authors are advised to study previous issues of this journal.

Prior to publication, a copyright release form must be filled out, signed by the author and returned to The Journal.

Compensation for articles published in The Journal will be three copies of the issue in which the article appears. Copies are mailed to the main author.

Editor: Nick Rushby

British Journal of Educational Technology is published by the National Council for Educational Technology (NCET) at the above address.

The BJET is published only in January, May, and September. Articles occasionally have to be carried over at the last minute because of space constraints. Turnaround time is usually within four weeks of an acknowledgement.

Submission Guidelines

BJET welcomes two types of contribution: articles (2000-4000 words) and Colloquium pieces (400-900) words; reviews are commissioned. It is essential that everything intended for publication (including references and acknowledgements) is double-spaced. Please submit manuscripts typed or word-processed on numbers single-sided sheets. We reserve the right to edit all submissions.

We welcome jargon-free writing; say it as simply as you can. Be concise. Avoid parochial references and assumptions; over 55% of BJET's subscribers live outside the UK, and for some, English is not their mother tongue. Spell out all acronyms first time around.

All contributions must be original. No simultaneous submissions. In the case of articles, authors sign a contract. While NCET holds the copyright of the collection of articles in each issue, authors retain certain rights to their own material.

Most contributions require some editing, and it is most helpful if authors submit a machine readable copy of the final version on a hard disk. The preferred format is 3 1/2" disk for MS-DOS in Word for Windows, Word 5, or WordPerfect. Other formats are possible, but more difficult to manage.

Style Issues: General

Style Issues: In-House Articles

Articles should not exceed 4000 words including references to any source that readers might wish to trace; however, there is no merit in lengthy lists per se. Whenever possible, the reason for citing a reference should be clear from the context. Please double-check both for accuracy and presentation.

Articles are rigorously refereed. The speed of publication of articles accepted depends on the author's readiness to respond to referees' comments. It helps greatly if your manuscript conforms to the rules below; whoever does your typing/word processing should follow these instructions closely:

1. Manuscripts should be double-spaced and single-sided. All pages must be numbered, with an abstract (100-200 words) on a separate sheet.

2. The original and one clear and complete photocopy should be submitted; retain a full photocopy.

3. The author's full name should appear at the beginning of the article in lower-case letters, followed by a sentence about current work or experience, including an address for correspondence.

4. Headings and sub-headings should be clearly distinguished and in lower-case; use decimal numbering (4.1, 4.2 etc) if it helps to clarify.

5. Illustrations should be on separately numbered sheets, each bearing an explanatory caption. The ideal position should be clearly shown in the manuscript. Artwork should preferably be camera-ready.

6. Footnotes should not be used; make your points in the main text.

7. Acknowledgement(s), if needed, appear after the text but before references.

8. References are cited in the text by name, date, and (if needed) page number thus (Isaacs 1987, 45), supported by an alphabetical listing by author at the end. Please follow this style, except use double spacing:

Book Mathias, H et al (1988) eds Designing New Systems and Technologies for Learning Kogan Page, London

Paper Barbour, R H (1984) Gordon Pask: a conversation theory of learning in Other, A N (ed) Proceedings of SERU conference on theories in education, University of Waikato, New Zealand

NB please cite published proceedings in book style wherever possible.

This feature aims at a style skin to a conversation in print, with shorter contributions (400-900 words) that are published much faster than articles. Here are some examples of suitable types:

* summary of work in progress, raising queries or problems

* short think-piece, perhaps questioning received wisdom

* early warning of the potential and problems of new media

* story of an unsuccessful research attempt, and lessons learned

* reaction to a previous BJET contribution

Contributions should conform to BJET house style. Mark envelope 'Colloquium' when submitting.

Is there a clear frame of reference? Does the author describe the impact of the new program or practice in a comprehensive manner?

Rockville, MD 20850-3238

Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) is a centralized, nationwide network, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education, and is designed to collect educational documents and make them available to teachers, administrators, researchers, students, and other interested persons. ERIC publishes a monthly abstract journal, Resources in Education (RIE), which announces all documents that are acquired by ERIC and that pass its selection criteria.

Main Topics of Interest

A document does not have to be formally published to be entered into the ERIC database. In fact, ERIC seeks out the unpublished or "fugitive" material not usually available through conventional library channels. ERIC's audience is so broad (teachers, administrators, supervisors, librarians, researchers, media specialists, counselors, students, parents) that it must collect a wide variety of documentation in order to satisfy its users. The following are examples of the kinds of materials collected: 1) research/technical reports; 2) program/ project descriptions; 3) opinion papers, essays, position papers;

3) monographs, treatises; 4) speeches and presentations; 4) state of the art studies; 5) instructional materials; 6) syllabi; 7) teaching guides; 8) resource guides; 9) manuals, etc.

Submission Guidelines

1. Documents may be type-set, typewritten, xeroxed, or otherwise duplicated.

2. Documents must be legible and easily readable. Letters should be clearly formed and with sufficient contrast to the paper background to permit filming.

3. No colored inks or colored papers.

4. Though single copies are acceptable, two copies are desirable: one for processing into the system and eventual filming, one for retention and possible use by the appropriate Clearinghouse while processing is occurring.

5. For each document submitted, authors must sign a Reproduction Release form.

Editors: Issue Editor

Jossey-Bass' sourcebook series offer today's professionals and scholars concise, topically focused resources on issues of current importance to their fields. Because they offer a unique blend of theory, research, and practice, Jossey-Bass quarterly sourcebooks are ideal resources for professional practice and for training and development efforts of all kinds.

Main Topics of Interest

Jossey-Bass quarterly sourcebooks are designed for a multi-disciplinary academic and professional audience of administrators, faculty leaders, scholars and professional practitioners who need practical, yet research-based, information in their fields of specialization to make informed decisions and improve their own effectiveness.

Submission Guidelines

The following guidelines are used for Higher Education, Institutional Research, and Community Colleges.

1. Double-space everything in the manuscript including quotations, extracts, and the reference section. Indent the first line of each paragraph and leave no extra space between paragraphs.

2. Margins should be at least 1" wide.

3. Use 8-1/2" x 11" nonerasable bond paper and type on one side only. If you must make last-minute corrections on the manuscript, do so neatly in black pencil; please do not use ink.

Headnote:Aa sentence alerting readers to the focus of the chapter and whetting their interest in it.

Title: As short (no more than 10 words) and informative as possible.

Text: As readable and practical as possible for a multidisciplinary audience. Illustrate theoretical ideas with specific examples, explain technical terms in nontechnical language, and keep the style clear. Do not include graphs or statistical tables unless absolutely necessary; emphasize the interpretation of data rather than the reporting of raw data, as such, since the facts in most charts can be described adequately in prose. Double-space the entire manuscript, including references, and avoid footnotes, tables, or figures whenever possible.

Headings: To help readers follow the ideas. Use several primary or freestanding heads for major themes. For subsections, use secondary heads in boldface and run in to the text at the beginning of paragraphs.

Tables or figures can be typewritten if produced neatly and clearly (although computer-generated artwork is preferable). Please have black-and-white photos shot at 150-line screen to no larger than 4-1/2" x 7" deep.

JOURNAL OF CAREER PLANNING & EMPLOYMENT

62 Highland Avenue

Bethlehem, PA 18017

Phone: (215) 868-1421

Fax: (215) 868-0208

The Journal of Career Planning & Employment is the professional magazine for the field of career counseling and placement personnel at colleges and universities, as well as for employers of college graduates. Articles should be geared toward this counsellor-recruiter audience, rather than toward students.

Main Topics of Interest

The Journal covers the entire scope of career counselling, placement, career information, recruitment, and utilization of college graduates. Consequently, the range of articles sought is wide: new techniques or innovative practices and issues: research reports or statistical analyses of unusual significance, stating implications for the profession; "profiles" of new or lesser-known career fields open to college graduates; human interest stories dealing with interesting and notable personalities in the field; examples of how placement or recruitment problems were solved.

Submission Guidelines

1. Query the editor before submitting.

2. No simultaneous submissions except under unusual circumstances. Speeches can serve as the basis for articles but seldom can be published verbatim.

3. Most articles are 3000 to 4000 words in length (about 10 to 12 pages). Some are shorter; fewer longer. The editors are flexible about length and believe the subject should fins its own level.

4. It is preferred that manuscripts be submitted on a floppy disk in ASCII format, accompanied by one hard copy double spaced with adequate margins at the top, bottom, and sides. Otherwise two copies of the manuscript typed double sided are required.

5. Photographs or illustrations are always welcomed. All photographs should be glossy black and white prints, preferably 8" x 10". Appropriate artwork will also be considered pen and ink, wash, or a combination. All photos and artwork should have good contrast and clarity.

6. Publication decisions are usually made within six to eight weeks; if it is necessary to seek outside editorial help, 10 weeks. The lag time between acceptance and publication can vary between four to nine months, depending on what time of year the manuscript is received.

7. Authors are required to sign a release, saying the article has never before been published and that CPC owns the copyright for the article. Reprint privileges reside with the Journal of Career Planning & Employment.

8. Deadlines to submit to Journal of career Planning & Employment: Fall issue (released in November): August 1; Winter (January): October 1; Spring (March): December 1; Summer (May): February 1.

Style Issues: General

Style Issues: In-House

Suggested style: the Chicago Manual of Style. Refer to the hard copy for style issues or query this before submitting.

Use an engaging, narrative style rather than a formal, thesis style. Avoid footnotes. A list of references at the end of the article is acceptable; in some cases, it is advisable. In the case of research reports or reports on surveys, refrain from making the copy overly statistical. Report the statistical material in tables or charts but limit them to the minimum number required. Comment on the findings in the text but make the statistical references meaningful.

Avoid a long description of methodology. Usually a few paragraphs or, at most, a page is sufficient. Readers are interested not in how you conducted the survey or study but in what you found and what the implications are.

School of Education

University of California at Riverside

Riverside, CA 92521

1. Define the populations used in studies; any article failing to do this will be summarily returned for clarification before editorial review. Research articles must also translate major finding to practice and specify the implications for applications with learning disability populations.

2. Four copies of the manuscript must be sent to the editor. The typical manuscript length is 25 pages.

3. All manuscripts must be accompanied by a 100-150 word abstract summarizing the contents.

4. Clear writing, adequate tables, and figures of professional quality are matters for which the author is responsible. Once a manuscript is accepted, authors may be asked to submit camera-ready copies of figures and tables.

5. Manuscripts must have a cover page giving the names and affiliations of all authors and the address of the principal author.

6. No simultaneous submissions or previously published works.

7. The points of view expressed in the Quarterly are those of the writers themselves and do not necessarily represent the individual or collective opinion of the officers or members of the Council for Learning Disabilities.
