Theory and Practice in Rural Education

• In Event: Meet the Editors of Rural Education Research Journals

Abstract

Promoting scholarship in rural education and disseminating that scholarship through peer review opportunities is essential. This workshop will provide upcoming opportunities for scholarly publication and service in a national, open access journal focused on rural education. This new online journal publishes articles focused on issues related to rural schools, students, educators, institutions of higher education, and communities. One general topics issue and one special topics issue are published each year. Upcoming special topics issues include Rural Gifted Learners; Equity, Inclusion, and Diversity in Rural Schools and Communities; and Rural STEM Teacher Development. All submissions go through the journal’s online process of double-blind review. In this workshop session, participants will engage in active discussions with members of the editorial board.
