CURRICULUM MATTERS
CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS
Curriculum Matters (an annual peer-reviewed journal published by the New Zealand Council for Educational Research) seeks contributions from international authors on topics and curriculum issues that are relevant to both New Zealand and international audiences.
The Editor (Dr Jane Abbiss) is happy to receive manuscripts that may not have direct links with the NZ curriculum context but which explore curriculum-related issues and questions that are of broad international relevance and interest. She is also interested in receiving shorter (2000-4000 word) ‘think pieces’ or commentary-type articles that pose questions for research, suggest areas that might warrant deeper exploration, or which find the global in the local (glocal). She is also happy to receive manuscripts at any time (the due date for manuscripts of 31 March is not a strict cut-off). Inquiries to: Jane Abbiss ()
