Educator’s Voice has called for papers on the theme of “Critical Thinking and Problem Solving for the 21st Century Learner.” The journal, focused on P-12 education, is published by New York State United Teachers (NYSUT) and aims to provide “research-based, field-tested strategies that have been used by experienced educators to help schools close achievement gaps and ensure all students have a solid academic foundation.” Contributions from higher education faculty analyzing P-12 education are welcome.
The call for the next issue requests article proposals on “investigations into ways in which learning that is authentic, collaborative and hands-on can capture the essence of real-world tasks and prepare students for a global society defined by fast communications, ongoing change and increasing diversity.” Examples of topic areas range from STEM education to inquiry-based learning to environmental literacy.
The deadline for proposals is June 9. More details, as well as guidelines and submission forms, are online.
