Introducing Journal   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #883 of 896 |
I forward for information, as requested below, the following message about 'The Science Education Review'. (I think I recall passing on a similar message some time back.)  Although I do not know the editor's work, there are some familiar names among the rather large editorial board (e.g. I spotted James Wandersee, Ricardo Trumper, Christine Chin, Joseph Novak). The journal is aimed at teachers rather than the research community  - so submissions that focus on "the education side of science education, as opposed to science content proper" are returned as unsuitable for the journal. From its website, the journal has some interesting features: each submission is reviewed by 6 reviewers; the journal offers a methodological review of a study prior to doing the work (for a fee); and the journal publishes some papers free, and others (which are made open access, and are given extra publicity) for an author charge. So there is clearly no intention of being taken seriously as a research journal, but it claims to offer practitioner's research based articles, so I thought colleagues might be interested in knowing of its existence.

Dear Fellow Science Educator
 
A comprehensive review of the international science education literature, plus
a wealth of readily-implemented classroom activities

Just a brief message to introduce The Science Education Review (SER), a relatively new international science education journal. Please find details at www.ScienceEducationReview.com . A free trial is available, together with the special report, Top Six Latest Ideas in Science Education. Also, please find our open access papers at http://www.scienceeducationreview.com/open_access/index.html .
 
I would also appreciate you kindly bringing SER to the attention of colleagues, and others involved in our field, by sharing this message with relevant persons in your address book, please.

Peter
