Call for Theme Proposals: 2021

2020-01-10

The Global Education Review (GER), an open-access peer-reviewed publication, is welcoming theme editors and proposals for the 2021 volume year.

Global Education Review is a forum for reporting approaches to and implications of educational practice, as well as the influence of social, economic, and political forces on educational practice in different countries or global regions. GER is published in thematic issues that reflect on policy and practice in educational settings in the United States and abroad. Selected themes focus on issues that are relevant to the field of education, with implications for policy nationally and/or globally. As a generalist journal, GER strives to provide open access, clearly written articles that are free of technical jargon to policy makers and educators at all levels, including those directly involved with student learning on a daily basis.

The table of contents of the current issue may be found at: http://ger.mercy.edu/index.php/ger; previous thematic issues can be found at: http://ger.mercy.edu/index.php/ger/issue/archive .

FORMAT OF PROPOSAL: You are invited to submit a proposal of no more than 500 words (not including the listing of up to 10 references). In the proposal you should identify the theme and discuss why it is important.

Theme Editors are expected to draft an open call for papers, select those to be reviewed, invite anonymous reviewers, and correspond with authors regarding development of the manuscripts.

Proposals are due by March 15, 2020. The proposals will be evaluated by a team of editors. The submitting authors will be notified of the editors’ decision by April 1, 2020.

Please email proposals as attachments in Microsoft Word format to emartone@mercy.edu and hwasmuth@mercy.edu
